Solve numerical equation with Y at both sides

5 次查看(过去 30 天)
Hi all,
I have a general equation I would like to solve. However, it contains the dependent variable Y on both sides.
The eqaution is: Y/Y_0 = B * (1 + x*Y/D)^0.5 * (1-x)^alpha
Where x is the independent variable,
and Y_0, B, D and alpha are constants. What would be the most appropriate function in Matlab for this particular problem?
Thanks,
Ron

You can use symbolic package. Something like this:
syms Y_0 Y B x Y D alpha
eqn = Y/Y_0 - B * (1 + x*Y/D)^0.5 * (1-x)^alpha==0 ;
s = solve(eqn,Y)

A numeric approach:
Y_0 = 3; % Define Constants
B = 5;
D = 7;
alpha = 11;
x = linspace(0, 0.9, 10);
Yfcn = @(Y,x) B * sqrt(1 + x*Y/D) .* (1-x).^alpha - Y/Y_0; % Use Element-Wise Operations
for k = 1:numel(x)
Y(k) = fzero(@(Y)Yfcn(Y,x(k)), 0.1);
end
figure
plot(x, Y)
grid
Note that if ‘x>1’ the result will be complex (regardless of what the other constants are), and the fzero function will fail. Consider using fsolve instead in this event.

Your equation can also be expressed as a quadratic in Y
which could be solved using roots (for specified values of x).
You would need to check that the solutions were consistent with the original equation.
