Solving a problem with the Shooting Newton Method in Matlab
Show older comments
I tried to implement the Shooting method using Newton method to solve a differential equation, but the exact solution recommended by the professor does not coincide with the numerical solution.
Equation:
-y''+exp(-x)/2(y'^2+y^2)=exp(-x)/2*cos(x)+2sin(x)
BC:
2y(0)-y'(0)=0
y(pi)=exp(pi)
Exact solution:
y=exp(x)+sin(x)
The graphs should coincide, but they don't.
Can you help me?
For testing
>> [x,u]= NonLinearShootingNewtonExercise(20,1,0.0001);
>> y=exp(x)+sin(x);
>> plot(x,u,'r*',x,y,'k-')
My code is:
[x,u]= NonLinearShootingNewtonExercise(20,1,0.0001);
y=exp(x)+sin(x);
plot(x,u,'r*',x,y,'k-')
function [x,u] = NonLinearShootingNewtonExercise(N,sk,tol)
%Shooting method using Netwod method
%Equation:
%-y''+exp(-x)/2(y'^2+y^2)=exp(-x)/2*cos(x)+2sin(x)
%BC:
%2y(0)-y'(0)=0
%y(pi)=exp(pi)
%Exact solution:
%y=exp(x)+sin(x)
%Input
%N: number of discretization point
%s0: initial value of s
%tol: tollerance
% Output:
% x: Vector containing the points at which the solution is approximated
% u: Approximated solution
%For testing
% [x,u]= NonLinearShootingNewtonExercise(20,1,0.0001);
% y=exp(x)+sin(x);
% plot(x,u,'r*',x,y,'k-')
epi=exp(pi);
h=pi/N;
x=0:h:pi;
ds=1+tol;
while ds>=tol
[xx,uvUV]=ode23(@fun,x,[sk 2*sk 1 2]); %I have 4 initial values (u,v,U,V)
%uvUV is an array of 4 coloumns and N+1 rows
phik=uvUV(N+1,1)+uvUV(N+1,2)-epi;
dphik=uvUV(N+1,3)+uvUV(N+1,4); %derivate of phi
skp1=sk-phik/dphik;
ds=abs(skp1-sk);
sk=skp1;
end
u=uvUV(:,1);
end
function uvp= fun(x,uvUV)
uvp=[uvUV(2); (exp(-x)/2*(uvUV(2)^2+uvUV(1)^2))-(exp(-x)/2+cos(x)+2*sin(x));...
uvUV(4);(exp(-x)*uvUV(1)*uvUV(3))+(exp(-x)*uvUV(2)*uvUV(4))];
%u is the first component and v is the second component
end

sol = fsolve(@fun,23,optimset('TolFun',1e-12,'TolX',1e-12));
fun(sol)
[X,Y] = ode_solver(sol);
