MuPAD Differential equation solver

5 次查看(过去 30 天)
I tried following the directions from:
on pg 8-12, but for some reason i'm getting an error with my syntax. I think it doesnt like how i'm writing apostrophe when i write y'(x).
Someone give me some ideas on how to make it work?
Thank you!

not necessarily, but maybe. What is your equation?

I was just trying to do the example from the pdf file i found
I've written it as diffequation = ode(y'(x)-y(x)^2,y(x)) and it gives me the syntax error in matlab saying unexpected parenthesis or notation. I've never really used MuPAD before so I'm not sure how it works

Try using dsolve from the matlab command window. y'(x) would be 'Dy' as in
dsolve('Dy = x',<initial conditions>,'x')
Edit
so for the example it should be:
syms x y;
dsolve('Dy-y^2','x')
- untested -

Do you know if you can do higher order differential equations with the dsolve?

Nevermind. I read the instructions on dsolver more carefully. Thank you very much again! Really appreciate it

2 things:
  • Be very careful to enter y(x) (never just plain y).
  • In the MuPad statement you included with your comment, you need a colon:
diffequation = ode(y'(x)-y(x)^2,y(x))
Should be:
diffequation := ode(y'(x)-y(x)^2,y(x))
instead
You can then
solve( diffequation )
