Moderately stiff and you need a solution without numerical Jacobian via odeset to maximize efficiency Jacobian in each step, so it is beneficial to provide the Or is inefficient and you suspect that the problem is stiff.Īlso use ode15s when solving differentialĮrror tolerances. Integrating over long time intervals, or when tolerances are Stringent error tolerances, or when the ODE function is Not sure which solver to use, then this table provides general guidelines on when toĬrude tolerances, or in the presence of moderate Objects to automate solver selection based on properties of the problem. Stiff solver, you can improve reliability and efficiency by supplying the Jacobian Try using a stiff solver such as ode15s instead. If you observe that a nonstiff solver is very slow, If nonstiff solvers (such as ode45) are unable to solve the Time scales, then the equation might be stiff. ForĮxample, if an ODE has two solution components that vary on drastically different Stiffness occurs when there is a difference in scaling somewhere in the problem. Stiffness is a term that defies a precise definition, but in general, Some ODE problems exhibit stiffness, or difficulty inĮvaluation. Ode45 for problems with looser or tighter accuracy Generally be your first choice of solver. Ode45 performs well with most ODE problems and should Y = yv(:,1) + i*yv(:,2) Basic Solver Selection Number of equations is only limited by available computer memory. You can specify any number of coupled ODE equations to solve, and in principle the Ode15i solver is designed for fully implicit Fully implicit ODEs cannot be rewritten in an explicitįorm, and might also contain some algebraic variables. The ode15s andįully implicit ODEs of the form f ( t, y, y ' ) = 0. The number of derivatives needed to rewrite a DAE as an Of first-order ODEs by taking derivatives of the equations to eliminate theĪlgebraic variables.

A system of DAEs can be rewritten as an equivalent system System of DAEs contains some algebraic variables.Īlgebraic variables are dependent variables whose derivatives do not appear If some components of y ' are missing, then the equations are calledĭifferential algebraic equations, or DAEs, and the Solver avoids this transformation, which is inconvenient and can be

However, specifying the mass matrix directly to the ODE Linearly implicit ODEs can always be transformed to an explicit form, y ' = M − 1 ( t, y ) f ( t, y ). Involve linear combinations of the first derivative of y, Or state-dependent, or it can be a constant matrix. Linearly implicit ODEs of the form M ( t, y ) y ' = f ( t, y ), where M ( t, y ) is a nonsingular mass matrix. Explicit ODEs of the form y ' = f ( t, y ).
