  6. Numerical solution Analytical solution How to solve this set of equations? • Integrate with software such as Excel or Mathematica (or many others) • Integration can be tricky • Need to know all parameters • Can be computationally demanding • Hand calculation • Software calculation using Mathematica for example • Often not possible for “real” systems • Even if possible, sometimes not useful

  7. Mathematica Syntax DSolve[ {eqn1, eqn2..},{y1,y2,..},t] Analytical solver NDSolve[{eqn1, eqn2..},{y1,y2,..},t] Numerical solver Plot[{f1,f2},{t,0,tmax}] Plotter See lecture7.mathematica.nb

  8. What if your feed varies in a non-functional way? Numerical integration!

  9. Numerical approx Slope: F-k1v1(10) Numerical ODE solving True solution Tank depth (h) Euler’s method! 10 0 0.1 time Time step=0.1

  10. Slope: F-k1v1(10) • Notes on Euler’s method: • Perfect fit for linear systems • Works well for nonlinear systems if the time step is small (everything is locally linear) • If time step is too large can explode • Small time steps mean slow calculations Numerical ODE solving Tank depth (h) 10 0 0.1 time Time step=0.1

  11. 6.0x103023 Numerical error! Time step=0.01 • Notes on Euler’s method: • Perfect fit for linear systems • Works well for nonlinear systems if the time step is small (everything is locally linear) • If time step is too large can explode • Small time steps mean slow calculations Numerical ODE solving Tank depth (h) 10 0 0.1 time Time step=0.1

  12. Solution: take some sort of weighted average of slopes at intermediate points to estimate the next value. Is there a way we could use a larger time step but retain accuracy? Numerical ODE solving Runge-Kutta methods! Tank depth (h) 10 0 0.1 time Time step=0.1

  13. Euler’s method Numerical ODE solving 4th order Runge-Kutta Where Tank depth (h) 10 0 0.1 time Time step=0.1

  14. Numerical ODE solving Why stop at 4th order? 5th order is similar but with different weightings Upsides: Larger step sizes possible Can be more stable Often more computationally efficient Downsides: Complex to implement Similar accuracy can often be achieved using Euler’s method which is easy to implement Tank depth (h) 10 0 0.1 time Time step=0.1

  15. Key Question: Have you stored enough water? See lecture7.excel.xls 12.1x1010 m3 3.6x1010 m3 29.1x1010 m3 Data from http://www.newton.dep.anl.gov/askasci/gen01/gen01629.htm

  16. Take home messages • Numerical simulation of differential equations can help you model very complex systems • Sometimes slower, simpler method are better as your time is often more valuable than a computers • Analytical results can be helpful in restricted cases.. Use Mathematica to handle the algebra
