MATLAB: Integrating Acceleration Data Matlab

Question

Hi there,

I have the acceleration vs. time data that is attached. When I plot it, I get the following:

I want to integrate it to get the Velocity vs. Time graph but I do not know how to do this. I have tried trapz() but it only gives some weird linear graph.

If someone could let me know how to do this that would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers.

Try

v = cumtrapz(X2(:,1),X2(:,2));
plot(X2(:,1),v)
