EGR 272 – Solving Differential Equations using MATLAB
Solving Differential Equations using MATLAB:
Notes on using dsolve('eqn1','eqn2', ...)
• Symbolic equations:
• ‘eqn1’, ‘eqn2’ represent symbolic differential equations and initial
conditions
• Example: dsolve(‘Dy + 4y = 2’, ‘y(0) = 10’)
• Independent variable:
• The default independent variable is t, but can be changed by listing it.
• Example: dsolve(‘Dy + 4y = 2’, ‘y(0) = 10’)
% Dy means dy/dt
• Example: dsolve(‘Dy + 4y = 2’, ‘y(0) = 10’, x) % Dy means dy/dx
• Derivatives:
• Dy – 1st derivative (note: avoid using D as a symbolic variable)
• D2y – 2nd derivative, D3y = 3rd derivative, etc.
• Initial conditions:
• Examples: ‘y(0) = 2’, ‘Dy(0) = 4’, ‘D2y(0) = 6’, etc
• If fewer than N initial conditions are provided for an Nth order DE, the
solution will contain constants C1, C2, …

Note: This example uses a forcing function of 10e-2t (right-side of the
equation). In EGR 270 we will only deal with DC sources, so the forcing
functions will always be constants.

Significance of overdamped, critically damped, and underdamped solutions
A circuit with an overdamped response is called an overdamped circuit (similar for the
other types of damping). What does this mean about the circuit?
First, some definitions:
Damping – the act of removing oscillations
Example: A shock absorber might be adjusted so that it doesn’t oscillate, but smoothly
returns a wheel to its initial position after an impact.
Example: A switch is thrown in a circuit and an output voltage adjusts to a new level.
• In an overdamped circuit, it would reach the new level smoothly and without
oscillation (ringing).
• In an underdamped circuit, it would oscillate as it approached the new level.
• See the illustration on the following slide.

Example: Different types of damping in an RLC circuit
For the circuit below we can easily see that v(0) = 0V and v() = 10V.
So when the switch closes at t = 0, how does v(t) get to 10V?
This is a 2nd-order circuit, so it must have a 2nd-order response. So it must be
overdamped, underdamped, or critically damped. Sketch v(t) below.

The characteristic equation is s 2   s  100  0

For critical damping it should be in the form (s  10) 2  s 2  20s  100  0, so
R

B) Use MATLAB so solve the DE and graph the response for:
• R = 200 (critically damped)
• R = 350 (overdamped)
• R = 50 (underdamped)
