Exponential Plot not acting correct

1 次查看(过去 30 天)
I have a script that is running, but the exponential plot is not acting correctly. As the x axis increases, the y axis should as well and it seems like it is doing the oppoiste of that. I have attached the equation that is needed, in the 'ideal_rocket_equation' attachment. Does anyone know how I can fix the plot
%% Coursework Number 1:
% Basing on the "Ideal Rocket Flight Performance" theory compute and show
% through suitable curves the optimal (maximum) total payload ratio
% lamda_tot of a multisage rocket with identical stages (c_i = c and k_si =
% k_s) as a function of the number of stages N.
% delta_V/c equal to 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, and 4.0
%k_s equal to 0.1
% For N = 1
ks_1 = 0.1;
%x = linspace(0,5.0);
x = [ 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0];
delta_V = x;
line_color = ['b' 'g' 'y' 'c' 'm'];
stages = cell(1, length(line_color));
%n = 1:5;
for i = 1: length(line_color);
stages{i} = sprintf('Stage %d' ,i);
hold on
%get new values
lamda_totmax = ((exp(-delta_V./i) - ks_1)/(1-ks_1)).^i
%lamda_totmax = ((exp(-delta_V./i)- ks_1)/(1 - ks_1)).^i;
semilogy ( x, lamda_totmax, '-', 'Color', line_color(i), 'LineWidth', 2)
end

The plot behavior looks correct to me, according to the equation.
If delta_V == 0, then lambda == 1. (You don't calculate/plot this point, but that is the result you get.)
In the limit that delta_V gets large, lambda gets smaller, and goes to
ks_1 = 0.1;
-ks_1 / (1 - ks_1) % when N == 1
ans = -0.1111
This seems to be what your plot does. So, I don't see a problem. But maybe I am not understanding something.
