Using Professor White's MATLAB script for Euler's Method
1. You will need Professor White's m-file euler.m. To download this file, start Netscape or Internet Explorer and go to the UML home page: http://www.uml.edu. Click on Academic Departments, then Mathematical Sciences Department, then the Courses circle, then 92.236 Honors Differential Equations - Prof. Pennell (under Course Web Pages), then Resource Links, then Professor White's Web Page, then List of MATLAB Demos, then euler.m under the Numerical Methods heading. You will see the contents of the file on your screen. Click on the File menu, then click on Save As. In the File Name box, type d:\euler.m (or a:\euler.m if you have a floppy disk, or e:\euler.m if you have a Zip disk), then click Save. 2. Start MATLAB, then type cd d:\ (or cd a:\ if you saved the files on a floppy disk, or cd e:\ if you saved the files on a Zip disk). 3. Before you use euler.m, you will need to create a file defining the right-hand side of the d.e. you want to solve. Click on the File menu, click on New, then click on M- file. An Editor/Debugger box will open on the screen. To solve the d.e. y' = 3 + t - y, type in the following three lines (including the last line with the word return): function z = f(t, y) z = 3 + t - y; %Dont forget the ; at the end of the line return Click on the File menu in the Editor/Debugger box, click Save As, then in the File Name box type d:\f.m (or a:\f.m if you have a floppy disk, or e:\f.m if you have a Zip disk). Click on the X in the upper right of the Editor/Debugger box, putting you back in MATLAB command mode. 4. To use Euler's Method on the problem y' = 3 + t - y, y(0) = 1, for 0 t 0.4, with a step size h=0.1, type a = 0; b = 0.4; y0 = 1; h = 0.1; n = (b - a)./h; % Dont forget the . before the / [t, y] = euler('f', a, b, y0, n); y' % The vector y contains the computed y values. % The ' causes the numbers to be printed in rows rather than in a single column plot(t, y) % This plots the computed solution
To solve the same IVP with a step size of h=0.05, type the commands h=0.05; n=(b - a)./h; % Dont forget the . before the / [t, y] = euler('f', a, b, y0, n); % Dont forget the ; at the end of the line y(1 : (n ./ 4) : n+1)' % Dont forget the . before the / % This command shows the computed y values at 4 equally spaced t values
5. Follow the same four steps with h=0.0025. Print the results of all three runs.
