How to solve differential equation

2 次查看(过去 30 天)
Hi,
I have the following line of code:
clear all;
clc;
answer = dsolve('Da=-k1*a*(b^1.7)','Db=-k1*a*(b^1.7)', 'Dc=k1*a*(b^1.7)','a(0)=0.752','b(0)=1.278','c(0)=0');
answer.a
But when I run it, it returns with the following:
Warning: Unable to find explicit solution.
> In dsolve (line 201)
In API2_OldMethod (line 6)
Dot indexing is not supported for variables of this type.
Error in sym/subsref (line 890)
R_tilde = builtin('subsref',L_tilde,Idx);
Error in API2_OldMethod (line 7)
answer.a
Can anyone explain to me what I'm doing wrong? Can it be fixed? Thanks.

There is no closed form solution for those equations (not that MATLAB can find), so dsolve() is returning empty.
Maple cannot find closed form solutions either.
