How to solve spring-mass ODE in rotating frame (without symbolic toolbox)

2 次查看(过去 30 天)
Hi,
I am trying to solve the ODE of a spring & mass in the rotating frame.
The equations of motion are as follows:
mx'' = -kx + 2my'w + m(x + e)w^2
my'' = -ky - 2mx'w + myw^2
here the "eccentric mass" is aligned with the x axis.
Given a set of initial conditions - what tool can i use in MATLAB to solve for x(t), y(t)?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!
Thanks!

Start off trying the ode45 function. Use the "Solve Nonstiff Equation" and "ODE with Time-Dependent Terms" examples on that documentation page as a model for writing your own ODE function and pass a function handle to that ODE function into ode45 as the first input argument.
If ode45 doesn't work or takes too long, try a stiffer solver from the table in the Basic Solver Selection section on this documentation page.

It looks like you are missing a w in your odefun for the 2my'w and 2mx'w terms. Also the sign of one of the terms looks incorrect. Try this:
dydt(2) = -(k/m)*y(1) + 2*y(4)*w + (y(1)+e)*w^2;
:
dydt(4) = -(k/m)*y(3) - 2*y(2)*w + y(3)*w^2;

Thank you! You are right, i was missing the w, and the sign was wrong on the 2nd term of the 4th dydt eqn.
