public interface ODEIntegrator
This interface represents a first order integrator for differential equations.

The classes which are devoted to solve first order differential equations should implement this interface. The problems which can be handled should implement the OrdinaryDifferentialEquation interface.

    • getStepStart Link icon

      ODEStateAndDerivative getStepStart()
      Get the state at step start time ti.

      This method can be called during integration (typically by the object implementing the differential equations problem) if the value of the current step that is attempted is needed.

      The result is undefined if the method is called outside of calls to integrate.

      Returns:
      state at step start time ti
    • getCurrentSignedStepsize Link icon

      double getCurrentSignedStepsize()
      Get the current signed value of the integration stepsize.

      This method can be called during integration (typically by the object implementing the differential equations problem) if the signed value of the current stepsize that is tried is needed.

      The result is undefined if the method is called outside of calls to integrate.

      Returns:
      current signed value of the stepsize
    • setMaxEvaluations Link icon

      void setMaxEvaluations(int maxEvaluations)
      Set the maximal number of differential equations function evaluations.

      The purpose of this method is to avoid infinite loops which can occur for example when stringent error constraints are set or when lots of discrete events are triggered, thus leading to many rejected steps.

      Parameters:
      maxEvaluations - maximal number of function evaluations (negative values are silently converted to maximal integer value, thus representing almost unlimited evaluations)
    • getMaxEvaluations Link icon

      int getMaxEvaluations()
      Get the maximal number of functions evaluations.
      Returns:
      maximal number of functions evaluations
    • getEvaluations Link icon

      int getEvaluations()
      Get the number of evaluations of the differential equations function.

      The number of evaluations corresponds to the last call to the integrate method. It is 0 if the method has not been called yet.

      Returns:
      number of evaluations of the differential equations function
    • integrate Link icon

      ODEStateAndDerivative integrate(ExpandableODE equations, ODEState initialState, double finalTime) throws MathIllegalArgumentException, MathIllegalStateException
      Integrate the differential equations up to the given time.

      This method solves an Initial Value Problem (IVP).

      Since this method stores some internal state variables made available in its public interface during integration (getCurrentSignedStepsize()), it is not thread-safe.

      Parameters:
      equations - differential equations to integrate
      initialState - initial state (time, primary and secondary state vectors)
      finalTime - target time for the integration (can be set to a value smaller than t0 for backward integration)
      Returns:
      final state, its time will be the same as finalTime if integration reached its target, but may be different if some ODEEventHandler stops it at some point.
      Throws:
      MathIllegalArgumentException - if integration step is too small
      MathIllegalStateException - if the number of functions evaluations is exceeded
      MathIllegalArgumentException - if the location of an event cannot be bracketed
