differential equations - Solving a system of ODEs with the Runge-Kutta method


I´m trying to solve a system of ODEs using a fourth-order Runge-Kutta method. I have to recreate certain results to obtain my degree. But I'm a beginner at Mathematica programming and with the Runge-Kutta method as well.


{A = 0.30, B = 1, C = 40, D = 1, E = 0.75, F = 0.11,
r = 2.5, a = 2, e = 0.475, g = 2, d = 0.03, n = 0.01, p = -0.00005}

x'[t]/x[t] = (A + B x[t] - C x[t]^2 - F)/(D + E^(r y[t]));
y'[t]/y[t] = g (((a s[t] x[t] k[t])/m[t]) - e) (1 - y[t]);
m'[t]/m[t] = n;
k'[t]/k[t] = x[t] - d;
s'[t]/s[t] = -p;


I'd appreciate any kind of help. For over a month now, I've tried to solve this system myself but have only gotten bad results. This model is supposed to fluctuate around the equilibrium point, but in the code I have so far, this doesn't happen.



Answer



Here is a functional approach. The following will give you one step of the Runge-Kutta formula:


RungeKutta[func_List, yinit_List, y_List, step_] := 
Module[{k1, k2, k3, k4},
k1 = step N[func /. MapThread[Rule, {y, yinit}]];
k2 = step N[func /. MapThread[Rule, {y, k1/2 + yinit}]];
k3 = step N[func /. MapThread[Rule, {y, k2/2 + yinit}]];
k4 = step N[func /. MapThread[Rule, {y, k3 + yinit}]];

yinit + Total[{k1, 2 k2, 2 k3, k4}]/6]

Here, func is a list of functions, yinit a list of initial values, y a list of function variables (in your case that will be {x, y, m, k, s}, and step is the step size of the numerical simulation. You can then use something like NestList to iterate it many times like this:


NestList[RungeKutta[func, #, y, step] &, N[yinit], Round[t/step]]

Here, t is the maximum value of your independent variable. You can also include conditionals to check that the lists are of equal length.

front end - keyboard shortcut to invoke Insert new matrix

I frequently need to type in some matrices, and the menu command Insert > Table/Matrix > New... allows matrices with lines drawn between columns and rows, which is very helpful. I would like to make a keyboard shortcut for it, but cannot find the relevant frontend token command (4209405) for it. Since the FullForm[] and InputForm[] of matrices with lines drawn between rows and columns is the same as those without lines, it's hard to do this via 3rd party system-wide text expanders (e.g. autohotkey or atext on mac). How does one assign a keyboard shortcut for the menu item Insert > Table/Matrix > New... , preferably using only mathematica? Thanks! Answer In the MenuSetup.tr (for linux located in the $InstallationDirectory/SystemFiles/FrontEnd/TextResources/X/ directory), I changed the line MenuItem["&New...", "CreateGridBoxDialog"] to read MenuItem["&New...", "CreateGridBoxDialog", MenuKey["m", Modifiers-...

How to thread a list

I have data in format data = {{a1, a2}, {b1, b2}, {c1, c2}, {d1, d2}} Tableform: I want to thread it to : tdata = {{{a1, b1}, {a2, b2}}, {{a1, c1}, {a2, c2}}, {{a1, d1}, {a2, d2}}} Tableform: And I would like to do better then pseudofunction[n_] := Transpose[{data2[[1]], data2[[n]]}]; SetAttributes[pseudofunction, Listable]; Range[2, 4] // pseudofunction Here is my benchmark data, where data3 is normal sample of real data. data3 = Drop[ExcelWorkBook[[Column1 ;; Column4]], None, 1]; data2 = {a #, b #, c #, d #} & /@ Range[1, 10^5]; data = RandomReal[{0, 1}, {10^6, 4}]; Here is my benchmark code kptnw[list_] := Transpose[{Table[First@#, {Length@# - 1}], Rest@#}, {3, 1, 2}] &@list kptnw2[list_] := Transpose[{ConstantArray[First@#, Length@# - 1], Rest@#}, {3, 1, 2}] &@list OleksandrR[list_] := Flatten[Outer[List, List@First[list], Rest[list], 1], {{2}, {1, 4}}] paradox2[list_] := Partition[Riffle[list[[1]], #], 2] & /@ Drop[list, 1] RM[list_] := FoldList[Transpose[{First@li...

plotting - How to draw lines between specified dots on ListPlot?

I would like to create a plot where I have unconnected dots and some connected. So far, I have figured out how to draw the dots. My code is the following: ListPlot[{{1, 1}, {2, 2}, {3, 3}, {4, 4}, {1, 4}, {2, 5}, {3, 6}, {4, 7}, {1, 7}, {2, 8}, {3, 9}, {4, 10}, {1, 10}, {2, 11}, {3, 12}, {4,13}, {2.5, 7}}, Ticks -> {{1, 2, 3, 4}, None}, AxesStyle -> Thin, TicksStyle -> Directive[Black, Bold, 12], Mesh -> Full] I have thought using ListLinePlot command, but I don't know how to specify to the command to draw only selected lines between the dots. Do have any suggestions/hints on how to do that? Thank you. Answer One possibility would be to use Epilog with Line : ListPlot[ {{1, 1}, {2, 2}, {3, 3}, {4, 4}, {1, 4}, {2, 5}, {3, 6}, {4, 7}, {1, 7}, {2, 8}, {3, 9}, {4, 10}, {1, 10}, {2, 11}, {3, 12}, {4, 13}, {2.5, 7}}, Ticks -> {{1, 2, 3, 4}, None}, AxesStyle -> Thin, TicksStyle -> Directive[Black, Bold, 12], Mesh -> Full, Epilog -> { Line[ ...
