Interface SecondaryEquations

public interface SecondaryEquations

This interface allows users to add secondary differential equations to a primary set of differential equations.

In some cases users may need to integrate some problem-specific equations along with a primary set of differential equations. One example is optimal control where adjoined parameters linked to the minimized hamiltonian must be integrated.

This interface allows users to add such equations to a primary set of first order differential equations thanks to the ExpandableStatefulODE.addSecondaryEquations(SecondaryEquations) method.

computeDerivatives

void computeDerivatives(double t,
                        double[] primary,
                        double[] primaryDot,
                        double[] secondary,

                 throws MaxCountExceededException,
                        DimensionMismatchException

Compute the derivatives related to the secondary state parameters.

Parameters:

t - current value of the independent time variable

primary - array containing the current value of the primary state vector

primaryDot - array containing the derivative of the primary state vector

secondary - array containing the current value of the secondary state vector

secondaryDot - placeholder array where to put the derivative of the secondary state vector

Throws:

MaxCountExceededException - if the number of functions evaluations is exceeded

DimensionMismatchException - if arrays dimensions do not match equations settings
