MATLAB: Ode option

Question

Hi at all,

I would like to ask you if there is a way,using standard matlab ode function, to stop the calculation before the final time; more precisely when a specific condition is satisfied.

It is possible do it without rewrite for example the ode45?

Thanks

Mitch

Answer 1

You can call ODE45 with an event function. See the docs for ODE45, e.g. http://www.mathworks.com/help/techdoc/ref/ode45.html and look for "event".
