pygslodeiv2 0.9.8

Python binding for odeiv2 in GNU Scientific Library (GSL).

pygslodeiv2 provides a Python binding to the Ordinary Differential Equation integration routines exposed by the odeiv2 interface of GSL - GNU Scientific Library. The odeiv2 interface allows a user to numerically integrate (systems of) differential equations.

The following stepping functions are available:

• rk2

• rk4

• rkf45

• rkck

• rk8pd

• rk1imp

• rk2imp

• rk4imp

• bsimp

• msadams

• msbdf

Note that all implicit steppers (those ending with “imp”) and msbdf require a user supplied callback for calculating the jacobian.

You may also want to know that you can use pygslodeiv2 from pyodesys which can e.g. derive the Jacobian analytically (using SymPy). pyodesys also provides plotting functions, C++ code-generation and more.

Documentation

Autogenerated API documentation for latest stable release is found here: https://bjodah.github.io/pygslodeiv2/latest (and the development version for the current master branch are found here: http://hera.physchem.kth.se/~pygslodeiv2/branches/master/html).

Installation

Simplest way to install is to use the conda package manager:

$ conda install -c conda-forge pygslodeiv2 pytest
$ python -m pytest --pyargs pygslodeiv2

tests should pass.

Binary distribution is available here: https://anaconda.org/bjodah/pygslodeiv2, conda recipes for stable releases are available here: http://hera.physchem.kth.se/~pygslodeiv2/conda-recipes.

Source distribution is available here (requires GSL v1.16 or v2.1 shared lib with headers): https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pygslodeiv2 (with mirrored files kept here: http://hera.physchem.kth.se/~pygslodeiv2/releases)

Examples

The classic van der Pol oscillator (see examples/van_der_pol.py)

>>> import numpy as np
>>> from pygslodeiv2 import integrate_predefined  # also: integrate_adaptive
>>> mu = 1.0
>>> def f(t, y, dydt):
...     dydt[0] = y[1]
...     dydt[1] = -y[0] + mu*y[1]*(1 - y[0]**2)
...
>>> def j(t, y, Jmat, dfdt):
...     Jmat[0, 0] = 0
...     Jmat[0, 1] = 1
...     Jmat[1, 0] = -1 -mu*2*y[1]*y[0]
...     Jmat[1, 1] = mu*(1 - y[0]**2)
...     dfdt[0] = 0
...     dfdt[1] = 0
...
>>> y0 = [1, 0]; dt0=1e-8; t0=0.0; atol=1e-8; rtol=1e-8
>>> tout = np.linspace(0, 10.0, 200)
>>> yout, info = integrate_predefined(f, j, y0, tout, dt0, atol, rtol,
...                                   method='bsimp')  # Implicit Bulirsch-Stoer
>>> import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
>>> series = plt.plot(tout, yout)
>>> plt.show()  # doctest: +SKIP
