How to take a derivative of x with respect to time.

77 次查看(过去 30 天)
Hello.
I'm trying to solve some derivatives in matlab for my dynamic course.
The problem is im a total noob to this program and i was wondering of some of you could help me out with this probaly simple problem.
I would like to get the time derivative of x with respect to t (time) but x^2 is a chain rule and xy would be a product rule.
Ive tried to solve it myself in the code below, its probaly totally wrong with my horrible coding skills.
Thanks.
syms x(t) y(t) z(t)
% f = [2*x-3*x*y+y^2-x*z+y*z^2-4*x*y*z , -x^2+x*y^2-2*y+5*y*z-x*z^2]
o = 2*x-3*x*y+y^2-x*z+y*z^2-4*x*y*z
p = -x^2+x*y^2-2*y+5*y*z-x*z^2
H = diff(x,t)*y*z+x*diff(y,t)*(z)+x*y*diff(z,t)

o should end up being equal to 2ẋ-3(ẋy+xẏ)+2yẏ-(ẋz+xż)+ẏz^2+2yzż
All the dotted letters are the time derivatives.
im having problems making matlab do the time derivatives with respect to x but x is a function

According to what I understand, you are trying to get the differentiation of variable o’ with respect to the parameter t.
For this we have a function ‘diff’ in MATLAB which comes under syms module, it can be used in the following manner
diff(o, t)
This will give you the expected answer.
Refer this documentation for more understanding of the function ‘diff: https://www.mathworks.com/help/symbolic/diff.html
