I am trying to integrate a very simple ODE using boost odeint. For some cases, the values are the same (or very similar) to Python's scipy odeint function. But for other initial conditions, the values are vastly different.
The function is: d(uhat) / dt = - alpha^2 * kappa^2 * uhat where alpha is 1.0, and kappa is a constant depending on the case (see values below).
I have tried several different ODE solvers from boost, and none seem to work.
Update: The code below is now working.
In the code below, the first case gives nearly identical results, the 2nd case is kind of trivial (but reassuring), and the 3rd case gives erroneous answers in the C++ version.
Here is the C++ version:
#include <boost/numeric/odeint.hpp>
#include <cstdlib>
#include <iostream>
typedef boost::numeric::odeint::runge_kutta_dopri5<double> Stepper_Type;
struct ResultsObserver
{
std::ostream& m_out;
ResultsObserver( std::ostream &out ) : m_out( out ) { }
void operator()(const State_Type& x , double t ) const
{
m_out << t << " : " << x << std::endl;
}
};
// The rhs: d_uhat_dt = - alpha^2 * kappa^2 * uhat
class Eq {
public:
Eq(double alpha, double kappa)
: m_constant(-1.0 * alpha * alpha * kappa * kappa) {}
void operator()(double uhat, double& d_uhat_dt, const double t) const
{
d_uhat_dt = m_constant * uhat;
}
private:
double m_constant;
};
void integrate(double kappa, double initValue)
{
const unsigned numTimeIncrements = 100;
const double dt = 0.1;
const double alpha = 1.0;
double uhat = initValue; //Init condition
std::vector<double> uhats; //Results vector
Eq rhs(alpha, kappa); //The RHS of the ODE
//This is what I was doing that did not work
//
//boost::numeric::odeint::runge_kutta_dopri5<double> stepper;
//for(unsigned step = 0; step < numTimeIncrements; ++step) {
// uhats.push_back(uhat);
// stepper.do_step(rhs, uhat, step*dt, dt);
//}
//This works
integrate_const(
boost::numeric::odeint::make_dense_output<Stepper_Type>( 1E-12, 1E-6 ),
rhs, uhat, startTime, endTime, dt, ResultsObserver(std::cout)
);
std::cout << "kappa = " << kappa << ", initial value = " << initValue << std::endl;
for(auto val : uhats)
std::cout << val << std::endl;
std::cout << "---" << std::endl << std::endl;
}
int main() {
const double kappa1 = 0.062831853071796;
const double initValue1 = -187.097241230045967;
integrate(kappa1, initValue1);
const double kappa2 = 28.274333882308138;
const double initValue2 = 0.000000000000;
integrate(kappa2, initValue2);
const double kappa3 = 28.337165735379934;
const double initValue3 = -0.091204068895190;
integrate(kappa3, initValue3);
return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}
and the corresponding Python3 version:
enter code here
#!/usr/bin/env python3
import numpy as np
from scipy.integrate import odeint
def Eq(uhat, t, kappa, a):
d_uhat = -a**2 * kappa**2 * uhat
return d_uhat
def integrate(kappa, initValue):
dt = 0.1
t = np.arange(0,10,dt)
a = 1.0
print("kappa = " + str(kappa))
print("initValue = " + str(initValue))
uhats = odeint(Eq, initValue, t, args=(kappa,a))
print(uhats)
print("---")
print()
kappa1 = 0.062831853071796
initValue1 = -187.097241230045967
integrate(kappa1, initValue1)
kappa2 = 28.274333882308138
initValue2 = 0.000000000000
integrate(kappa2, initValue2)
kappa3 = 28.337165735379934
initValue3 = -0.091204068895190
