differential equations - NDSolve runs out of memory


I need to solve a second order ODE numerically. The ODE depends on two parameters (a,b). Things work fine when 'a' is small, but for large 'a' the solutions are oscillating rapidly and Mathematica takes a long time to solve or eventually just runs out of memory.


I need to integrate over quite a large range (10,000) and that is part of the problem, but I actually only need the value of the InterpolatingFunction produced at the end point. Is there a way to tell Mathematica I just want this last point? And not store the rest (very large) InterpolatingFunction in memory? i.e. just integrate so far, take that point use as ICs for next leg, then integrate to next pt, take that as IC and integrate onwards,etc...


Or just some other strategy for using NDSolve with such highly oscillatory solutions.


Some definitions:


M=1;
rstar[r_] := r + 2 M Log[r/(2 M) - 1];

$MinPrecision = 45;
wp = $MinPrecision;
ac = $MinPrecision - 8;
λ[l_] = l (l + 1);
rinf = 10000;
rH = 200001/100000;
nH = 200;

The ODE is:


eq[ω_, l_] := Φ''[r] + (2 (r - M))/(

r (r - 2 M)) Φ'[
r] + ((ω^2 r^2)/(r - 2 M)^2 - λ[l]/(
r (r - 2 M))) Φ[r] == 0

Without going into detail about why I have these initial conditions, they are :


HorizonICs[l_?IntegerQ, ω_?NumericQ] := 
Module[{ΦinrH, dΦinrH},
Clear[b];
b[0] = 1; b[-1] = 0; b[-2] = 0;
b[n_] :=

b[n] = Simplify[
1/(2 n (n - 4 I ω)) (-2 I ω b[-2 + n] +
2 I n ω b[-2 + n] + l b[-1 + n] + l^2 b[-1 + n] +
n b[-1 + n] - n^2 b[-1 + n] - 4 I ω b[-1 + n] +
8 I n ω b[-1 + n])];
uintrunc[r_, n_] := Sum[b[i] (r - 2 M)^i, {i, 0, n}];
ΦinrH = (Exp[-I ω rstar[rH]] uintrunc[rH, nH])/(
2 M);
dΦinrH =
D[(Exp[-I ω rstar[r]] uintrunc[r, nH])/(2 M), r] /.

r -> rH;
]

Solve as


ΦinExt[ωω_ , 
l_] := ΦinExt[ωω, l] = Φ /.
NDSolve[{eq[ωω, l], Φ[rH] ==
N[HorizonICs[l, ωω][[1]], wp], Φ'[
rH] == N[HorizonICs[l, ωω][[2]],
wp]}, Φ, {r, rH, rinf}, WorkingPrecision -> wp,

AccuracyGoal -> ac, MaxSteps -> ∞,
Method -> "StiffnessSwitching"][[1]];

You can also look for another solution that has the property of being simple near infinity and we set the ICs there. This is the particular solution that seems to be really really slow and causes memory crash.


Some definitions:


M = 1;
r0 = 5/2;
rstar[r_] := r + 2 M Log[r/(2 M) - 1];
$MinPrecision = 45;
wp = $MinPrecision;

ac = $MinPrecision - 8;
λ[l_] = l (l + 1);
rinf = 10000;
ninfphase =
50;

Set init conditions:


Infinitycs = Module[{n = ninfphase, c}, 
Clear[c];
veqexp =

CoefficientList[
Series[(-2 - l r - l^2 r + 2 (r + I r^3 ω)
\!\(\*SuperscriptBox["v", "′",
MultilineFunction->None]\)[r] + (-2 + r) r^2
\!\(\*SuperscriptBox["v", "′",
MultilineFunction->None]\)[r]^2 + (-2 + r) r^2
\!\(\*SuperscriptBox["v", "′′",
MultilineFunction->None]\)[r])/
r /. {v'[r_] :> Sum[-i c[i]/r^(i + 1), {i, 1, n}],
v''[r_] :>

Sum[i (i + 1) c[i]/r^(i + 2), {i, 1, n}]}, {r, ∞,
n - 1}], r^-1];
Do[c[i] = c[i] /. Simplify[Solve[veqexp[[i]] == 0, c[i]][[1]]];
Print, {i, 1, n}] ;
Table[c[i], {i, 1, n}]];

InfinityICs[ll_?IntegerQ, ωω_?NumericQ] := Module[{c2},
Do[c2[i] =
Infinitycs[[i]] /. {l -> ll, ω -> ωω}, {i, 1,
ninfphase}];

vtrunc = Sum[c2[i]/r^i, {i, 1, ninfphase}];
init = 1/r Exp[I ωω rstar[r] + vtrunc] /. r -> rinf;
dinit =
D[1/r Exp[I ωω rstar[r] + vtrunc], r] /. r -> rinf;
Clear[c2];
{init, dinit}]

Solve it


Φout[ωω_, 
l_] := Φout[ωω, l] = Φ /.

Block[{$MaxExtraPrecision = 100},
NDSolve[{eq[ωω, l], Φ[rinf] ==
N[InfinityICs[l, ωω][[1]], wp], Φ'[
rinf] ==
N[InfinityICs[l, ωω][[2]],
wp]}, Φ, {r, rinf, r0}, WorkingPrecision -> wp,
AccuracyGoal -> ac, MaxSteps -> ∞]][[1]];

Answer




I need to integrate over quite a large range (10,000) and that is part of the problem, but I actually only need the value of the InterpolatingFunction[] produced at the end point. Is there a way to tell Mathematica I just want this last point?




One way to go about it is to have the start and end of the integration interval be identical. Consider the following:


y[5] /. First @ NDSolve[{y'[x] == y[x] Cos[x + y[x]], y[0] == 1}, y, {x, 5, 5}]
0.07731217497157500942

To see that the approach saves space, here's a comparison:


yi = y /. First@NDSolve[{y'[x] == y[x] Cos[x + y[x]], y[0] == 1}, y, {x, 5, 5}];
ByteCount[yi]
1296


yn = y /. First@NDSolve[{y'[x] == y[x] Cos[x + y[x]], y[0] == 1}, y, {x, 0, 5}];
ByteCount[yn]
3288

plotting - Filling between two spheres in SphericalPlot3D

Manipulate[ SphericalPlot3D[{1, 2 - n}, {θ, 0, Pi}, {ϕ, 0, 1.5 Pi}, Mesh -> None, PlotPoints -> 15, PlotRange -> {-2.2, 2.2}], {n, 0, 1}] I cant' seem to be able to make a filling between two spheres. I've already tried the obvious Filling -> {1 -> {2}} but Mathematica doesn't seem to like that option. Is there any easy way around this or ... Answer There is no built-in filling in SphericalPlot3D . One option is to use ParametricPlot3D to draw the surfaces between the two shells: Manipulate[ Show[SphericalPlot3D[{1, 2 - n}, {θ, 0, Pi}, {ϕ, 0, 1.5 Pi}, PlotPoints -> 15, PlotRange -> {-2.2, 2.2}], ParametricPlot3D[{ r {Sin[t] Cos[1.5 Pi], Sin[t] Sin[1.5 Pi], Cos[t]}, r {Sin[t] Cos[0 Pi], Sin[t] Sin[0 Pi], Cos[t]}}, {r, 1, 2 - n}, {t, 0, Pi}, PlotStyle -> Yellow, Mesh -> {2, 15}]], {n, 0, 1}]

plotting - Plot 4D data with color as 4th dimension

I have a list of 4D data (x position, y position, amplitude, wavelength). I want to plot x, y, and amplitude on a 3D plot and have the color of the points correspond to the wavelength. I have seen many examples using functions to define color but my wavelength cannot be expressed by an analytic function. Is there a simple way to do this? Answer Here a another possible way to visualize 4D data: data = Flatten[Table[{x, y, x^2 + y^2, Sin[x - y]}, {x, -Pi, Pi,Pi/10}, {y,-Pi,Pi, Pi/10}], 1]; You can use the function Point along with VertexColors . Now the points are places using the first three elements and the color is determined by the fourth. In this case I used Hue, but you can use whatever you prefer. Graphics3D[ Point[data[[All, 1 ;; 3]], VertexColors -> Hue /@ data[[All, 4]]], Axes -> True, BoxRatios -> {1, 1, 1/GoldenRatio}]

plotting - Mathematica: 3D plot based on combined 2D graphs

I have several sigmoidal fits to 3 different datasets, with mean fit predictions plus the 95% confidence limits (not symmetrical around the mean) and the actual data. I would now like to show these different 2D plots projected in 3D as in but then using proper perspective. In the link here they give some solutions to combine the plots using isometric perspective, but I would like to use proper 3 point perspective. Any thoughts? Also any way to show the mean points per time point for each series plus or minus the standard error on the mean would be cool too, either using points+vertical bars, or using spheres plus tubes. Below are some test data and the fit function I am using. Note that I am working on a logit(proportion) scale and that the final vertical scale is Log10(percentage). (* some test data *) data = Table[Null, {i, 4}]; data[[1]] = {{1, -5.8}, {2, -5.4}, {3, -0.8}, {4, -0.2}, {5, 4.6}, {1, -6.4}, {2, -5.6}, {3, -0.7}, {4, 0.04}, {5, 1.0}, {1, -6.8}, {2, -4.7}, {3, -1.
