Symbolic Substitution(subs) is not working , why?

4 次查看(过去 30 天)
T(t) =
(25*diff(r1(t), t)^2)/12 + (25*diff(r2(t), t)^2)/8 + (25*cos(r1(t))^2*diff(r1(t), t)^2)/4 + (25*sin(r1(t))^2*diff(r1(t), t)^2)/4 + (3*(5*cos(r1(t))*diff(r1(t), t) + (5*cos(r2(t))*diff(r2(t), t))/2)^2)/2 + (3*(5*sin(r1(t))*diff(r1(t), t) + (5*sin(r2(t))*diff(r2(t), t))/2)^2)/2
T is gained from somewhere which is long story but it works perfectly fine. My code is following:
syms T r1(t) k1
subs(T,r1,k1);
P1=diff(T,k1);
Because I can't differentiate in terms of symbolic function, I wanted to replace r1 with k1, but it doesn't replace and subs function gives back these:
ans(t) =
(25*diff(r2(t), t)^2)/8 + (75*cos(r2(t))^2*diff(r2(t), t)^2)/8 + (75*sin(r2(t))^2*diff(r2(t), t)^2)/8
Somehow r1(t)'s are disappeared but couldn't been replaced with k1. Because there is not k1 in substituted function,differentiation(diff) gives back just 0(zero) which is normal.
Can someone explain me the situation please?

No, the substitution is working. But you have diff(r1(t),t) and when you replace r1(t) with k1, that becomes diff(k1, t) and since k1 is independent of t, the diff() becomes 0.

Mr Walter, Although subs is working, still I can't get answer as wanted since whenever I substitute symbolic function with symbolic variables, it automatically makes things zero. I had to use subs because I don't still understand why it is not possible to derive the symbolic function in terms of symbolic function. Do you have any suggestion?

Perhaps you want to use functionalDerivative()
But what I recommend is that you look at the first example in odeFunction() to see how to convert equations with derivatives into systems of equations.
