daspk: Solver for Differential Algebraic Equations (DAE)

Description

Solves either:
  • a system of ordinary differential equations (ODE) of the form$$y' = f(t, y, ...)$$or
  • a system of differential algebraic equations (DAE) of the form$$F(t,y,y') = 0$$or
  • a system of linearly implicit DAES in the form$$M y' = f(t, y)$$
using a combination of backward differentiation formula (BDF) and a direct linear system solution method (dense or banded). The Rfunction daspk provides an interface to the FORTRAN DAE solver of the same name, written by Linda R. Petzold, Peter N. Brown, Alan C. Hindmarsh and Clement W. Ulrich. The system of DE's is written as an Rfunction (which may, of course, use .C, .Fortran, .Call, etc., to call foreign code) or be defined in compiled code that has been dynamically loaded.

Usage

daspk(y, times, func = NULL, parms, nind = c(length(y), 0, 0), 
  dy = NULL, res = NULL, nalg = 0, 
  rtol = 1e-6, atol = 1e-6, jacfunc = NULL,
  jacres = NULL, jactype = "fullint", mass = NULL, estini = NULL,
  verbose = FALSE, tcrit = NULL, hmin = 0, hmax = NULL,
  hini = 0, ynames = TRUE, maxord = 5, bandup = NULL,
  banddown = NULL, maxsteps = 5000, dllname = NULL,
  initfunc = dllname, initpar = parms, rpar = NULL,
  ipar = NULL, nout = 0, outnames = NULL,
  forcings=NULL, initforc = NULL, fcontrol=NULL,
  events = NULL, lags = NULL, ...)

Arguments

y
the initial (state) values for the DE system. If y has a name attribute, the names will be used to label the output matrix.
times
time sequence for which output is wanted; the first value of times must be the initial time; if only one step is to be taken; set times = NULL.
func
to be used if the model is an ODE, or a DAE written in linearly implicit form (M y' = f(t, y)). func should be an R-function that computes the values of the derivatives in the ODE system (the model definition) at tim
parms
vector or list of parameters used in func, jacfunc, or res
nind
if a DAE system: a three-valued vector with the number of variables of index 1, 2, 3 respectively. The equations must be defined such that the index 1 variables precede the index 2 variables which in turn precede the index 3 variables. The
dy
the initial derivatives of the state variables of the DE system. Ignored if an ODE.
res
if a DAE system: either an R-function that computes the residual function $F(t,y,y')$ of the DAE system (the model defininition) at time t, or a character string giving the name of a compiled function in a dynamically loaded share
nalg
if a DAE system: the number of algebraic equations (equations not involving derivatives). Algebraic equations should always be the last, i.e. preceeded by the differential equations. Only used if estini = 1.
rtol
relative error tolerance, either a scalar or a vector, one value for each y,
atol
absolute error tolerance, either a scalar or a vector, one value for each y.
jacfunc
if not NULL, an Rfunction that computes the Jacobian of the system of differential equations. Only used in case the system is an ODE ($y' = f(t, y)$), specified by func. The Rcalling sequence for jacfunc is i
jacres
jacres and not jacfunc should be used if the system is specified by the residual function $F(t, y, y')$, i.e. jacres is used in conjunction with res. If jacres is an R-funct
jactype
the structure of the Jacobian, one of "fullint", "fullusr", "bandusr" or "bandint" - either full or banded and estimated internally or by the user.
mass
the mass matrix. If not NULL, the problem is a linearly implicit DAE and defined as $M\, dy/dt = f(t,y)$. The mass-matrix $M$ should be of dimension $n*n$ where $n$ is the number of $y$-values.

If mass=NULL<

estini
only if a DAE system, and if initial values of y and dy are not consistent (i.e. $F(t,y,dy) \neq 0$), setting estini = 1 or 2, will solve for them. If estini = 1: dy and the algebraic variab
verbose
if TRUE: full output to the screen, e.g. will print the diagnostiscs of the integration - see details.
tcrit
the FORTRAN routine daspk overshoots its targets (times points in the vector times), and interpolates values for the desired time points. If there is a time beyond which integration should not proceed (perhaps becaus
hmin
an optional minimum value of the integration stepsize. In special situations this parameter may speed up computations with the cost of precision. Don't use hmin if you don't know why!
hmax
an optional maximum value of the integration stepsize. If not specified, hmax is set to the largest difference in times, to avoid that the simulation possibly ignores short-term events. If 0, no maximal size is specif
hini
initial step size to be attempted; if 0, the initial step size is determined by the solver
ynames
logical, if FALSE, names of state variables are not passed to function func; this may speed up the simulation especially for large models.
maxord
the maximum order to be allowed. Reduce maxord to save storage space (
bandup
number of non-zero bands above the diagonal, in case the Jacobian is banded (and jactype one of "bandint", "bandusr")
banddown
number of non-zero bands below the diagonal, in case the Jacobian is banded (and jactype one of "bandint", "bandusr")
maxsteps
maximal number of steps per output interval taken by the solver; will be recalculated to be at least 500 and a multiple of 500; if verbose is TRUE the solver will give a warning if more than 500 steps are taken,
dllname
a string giving the name of the shared library (without extension) that contains all the compiled function or subroutine definitions referred to in res and jacres. See package vignette "compiledCode".
initfunc
if not NULL, the name of the initialisation function (which initialises values of parameters), as provided in dllname. See package vignette "compiledCode".
initpar
only when dllname is specified and an initialisation function initfunc is in the dll: the parameters passed to the initialiser, to initialise the common blocks (FORTRAN) or global variables (C, C++).
rpar
only when dllname is specified: a vector with double precision values passed to the dll-functions whose names are specified by res and jacres.
ipar
only when dllname is specified: a vector with integer values passed to the dll-functions whose names are specified by res and jacres.
nout
only used if dllname is specified and the model is defined in compiled code: the number of output variables calculated in the compiled function res, present in the shared library. Note: it is not automatically checked
outnames
only used if dllname is specified and nout > 0: the names of output variables calculated in the compiled function res, present in the shared library. These names will be used to label the output matrix.
forcings
only used if dllname is specified: a list with the forcing function data sets, each present as a two-columned matrix, with (time,value); interpolation outside the interval [min(times), max(times)] is done
initforc
if not NULL, the name of the forcing function initialisation function, as provided in dllname. It MUST be present if forcings has been given a value. See forcings
fcontrol
A list of control parameters for the forcing functions. See forcings or vignette compiledCode.
events
A list that specifies events, i.e. when the value of a state variable is suddenly changed. See events for more information.
lags
A list that specifies timelags, i.e. the number of steps that has to be kept. To be used for delay differential equations. See timelags, dede for more information.
...
additional arguments passed to func, jacfunc, res and jacres, allowing this to be a generic function.

Value

  • A matrix of class deSolve with up to as many rows as elements in times and as many columns as elements in y plus the number of "global" values returned in the next elements of the return from func or res, plus an additional column (the first) for the time value. There will be one row for each element in times unless the FORTRAN routine `daspk' returns with an unrecoverable error. If y has a names attribute, it will be used to label the columns of the output value.

Details

The daspk solver uses the backward differentiation formulas of orders one through five (specified with maxord) to solve either:
  • an ODE system of the form$$y' = f(t,y,...)$$or
  • a DAE system of the form$$y' = M f(t,y,...)$$or
  • a DAE system of the form$$F(t,y,y') = 0$$. The index of the DAE should be preferable <= 1.<="" li="">
ODEs are specified using argument func, DAEs are specified using argument res. If a DAE system, Values for y and y' (argument dy) at the initial time must be given as input. Ideally, these values should be consistent, that is, if t, y, y' are the given initial values, they should satisfy F(t,y,y') = 0. However, if consistent values are not known, in many cases daspk can solve for them: when estini = 1, y' and algebraic variables (their number specified with nalg) will be estimated, when estini = 2, y will be estimated. The form of the Jacobian can be specified by jactype. This is one of: [object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object] If jactype = "fullusr" or "bandusr" then the user must supply a subroutine jacfunc.

If jactype = "fullusr" or "bandusr" then the user must supply a subroutine jacfunc or jacres. The input parameters rtol, and atol determine the error control performed by the solver. If the request for precision exceeds the capabilities of the machine, daspk will return an error code. See lsoda for details. When the index of the variables is specified (argument nind), and higher index variables are present, then the equations are scaled such that equations corresponding to index 2 variables are multiplied with 1/h, for index 3 they are multiplied with 1/h^2, where h is the time step. This is not in the standard DASPK code, but has been added for consistency with solver radau. Because of this, daspk can solve certain index 2 or index 3 problems. res and jacres may be defined in compiled C or FORTRAN code, as well as in an R-function. See package vignette "compiledCode" for details. Examples in FORTRAN are in the dynload subdirectory of the deSolve package directory.

The diagnostics of the integration can be printed to screen by calling diagnostics. If verbose = TRUE, the diagnostics will written to the screen at the end of the integration.

See vignette("deSolve") for an explanation of each element in the vectors containing the diagnostic properties and how to directly access them.

Models may be defined in compiled C or FORTRAN code, as well as in an R-function. See package vignette "compiledCode" for details.

More information about models defined in compiled code is in the package vignette ("compiledCode"); information about linking forcing functions to compiled code is in forcings.

Examples in both C and FORTRAN are in the dynload subdirectory of the deSolve package directory.
