ParametricNDSolve

ParametricNDSolve[eqns,u,{x,xmin,xmax},pars]

finds a numerical solution to the ordinary differential equations eqns for the function u with the independent variable x in the range xmin to xmax with parameters pars.

ParametricNDSolve[eqns,u,{x,xmin,xmax},{y,ymin,ymax},pars]

solves the partial differential equations eqns over a rectangular region.

ParametricNDSolve[eqns,u,{x,y}∈Ω,pars]

solves the partial differential equations eqns over the region Ω.

ParametricNDSolve[eqns,u,{t,tmin,tmax},{x,y}∈Ω,pars]

solves the time-dependent partial differential equations eqns over the region Ω.

ParametricNDSolve[eqns,{u1,u2,…},…]

solves for the functions ui.

Details and Options

  • ParametricNDSolve gives results in terms of ParametricFunction objects.
  • A specification for the parameters pars of {pspec1,pspec2,…} can be used to specify ranges.
  • Possible forms for pspeci are:
  • pp has range Reals or Complexes
    Element[p,Reals]p has range Reals
    Element[p,Complexes]p has range Complexes
    Element[p,{v1,…}]p has discrete range {v1,…}
    {p,pmin,pmax}p has range
  • In ParametricNDSolve[eqns,{u1,u2,…},…], ui can be any expression. Typically, ui will depend on the parameters indirectly through the solution of the differential equations but may depend explicitly on the parameters. A ParametricFunction object that will return a list can be obtained using ParametricNDSolve[eqns,{{u1,u2,…}},…] or by using ParametricNDSolveValue[eqns,{u1,u2,…},…].
  • Derivatives of the resulting ParametricFunction objects with respect to the parameters are computed using a combination of symbolic and numerical sensitivity methods when possible.
  • ParametricNDSolve takes the same options and settings as NDSolve.
  • NDSolve and ParametricNDSolve typically solve differential equations by going through several different stages, depending on the type of equations. With Method->{s1->m1,s2->m2,…}, stage si is handled by method mi. The actual stages used and their order are determined by NDSolve, based on the problem to be solved.
  • Possible solution stages are the same as for NDSolve, with the addition of:
  • "ParametricCaching"caching of computed solutions
    "ParametricSensitivity"computation of derivatives with respect to parameters

    • List of all options
