Chapter 7 Ordinary Differential Equations Matlab has several different functions for the numerical solution of ordinary differential equations. This chapter describes the simplest of these functions and then compares all of the functions for efficiency‚ accuracy‚ and special features. Stiffness is a subtle concept that plays an important role in these comparisons. 7.1 Integrating Differential Equations The initial value problem for an ordinary differential equation involves finding a function

Diagonally Implicit Block Backward Differentiation Formulas for Solving Ordinary Differential Equations 1.0 Introduction In mathematics‚ if y is a function of x‚ then an equation that involves x‚ y and one or more derivatives of y with respect to x is called an ordinary differential equation (ODE). The ODEs which do not have additive solutions are non-linear‚ and finding the solutions is much more sophisticated because it is rarely possible to represent them by elementary function in close
