How to solve integral numerically in Matlab?

1 view (last 30 days)
if R=integral(10*exp(-60/{T(t)*Ni(x)}*Ni(x)), integral limit, x=0 to x=10 Ni(x) is 1-D interpolation function as used in finite element method, T is function of time, shape function is function of length. How to solve integral in Matlab if using "Gauss quadrature rule" or if there some command guidance to be written in code. Please I need guidance.
Thank you

Is this integral a function of t or of x?
Did you read the documentation already?
doc integral

If your interpolation does not have continuous first derivatives (linear interpolation does not) then you need to use the waypoints parameter of integrate() to designate all of the change points as waypoints.
