vode
provides an interface to the
Fortran ODE solver of the same name, written by Peter N. Brown, Alan C. Hindmarsh and George D. Byrne.
The system of ODE's is written as an Rfunction or be defined in
compiled code that has been dynamically loaded.
In contrast to lsoda
, the user has to specify whether or not the problem is stiff
and choose the appropriate solution method.
vode
is very similar to lsode
, but uses a variable-coefficient method
rather than the fixed-step-interpolate methods in lsode
.
In addition, in vode it is possible to choose whether or not a copy
of the Jacobian is saved for reuse in the corrector iteration algorithm;
In lsode
, a copy is not kept.vode(y, times, func, parms, rtol=1e-6, atol=1e-8,
jacfunc=NULL, jactype="fullint", mf=NULL, verbose=FALSE,
tcrit=NULL, hmin=0, hmax=NULL, hini=0, ynames=TRUE, maxord=NULL,
bandup=NULL, banddown=NULL, maxsteps=5000, dllname=NULL,
initfunc=dllname, initpar=parms, rpar=NULL,
ipar=NULL, nout=0, outnames=NULL, ...)
y
has a name attribute, the names will be used to label the output matrix.times
must be the initial time; if only one step is to be taken; set times

or jacfunc
.y
. See details.y

, an Rfunction that computes
the jacobian of the system of differential equations
dydot(i)/dy(j), or a string giving the name of a function or
subroutine in mf

- see detailsNULL
, then vode
cannot integrate past tcrit
. The Fortran routine dvode
overshoots its targets (times points in the vector times
), and interpolates values
for the desired time potimes
, to avoid that the simulation possibly ignores short-term events. If 0, no maximal size is specifiedfunc
; this may speed up the simulation especially for multi-D modelsfunc
and jacfunc
. See package vignetteinitfunc
is in the dll: the parameters passed to the initialiser, to initialise the common blocks (fortran) or global variables (C, C++)func
and jacfunc
func
and jacfunc
dllname
is specified and the model is defined in compiled code: the number of output variables calculated in the compiled function func
, present in the shared library. Note:
it is not automatically checked whetnout
> 0: the names of output variables calculated in the compiled function func
, present in the shared libraryfunc
and jacfunc
allowing this to be a generic functiony
plus the number of "global" values returned
in the next elements of the return from func
, plus an additional column (the first) for the time value.
There will be one row for each element in times
unless the Fortran routine `vode' returns with an unrecoverable error.
If y
has a names attribute, it will be used to label the columns of the output value.
The output will have the attributes istate
, and rstate
, two vectors with several useful elements.
See details.
The first element of istate returns the conditions under which the last call to lsoda returned. Normal is istate[1] = 2
.
If verbose
= TRUE, the settings of istate and rstate will be written to the screenvode
, the user has to decide whether or not the problem is stiff.
If the problem is nonstiff, use method flag mf
= 10, which selects a nonstiff (Adams) method, no Jacobian used.
If the problem is stiff, there are four standard choices
which can be specified with jactype
or mf
.
The options for jactype are
mf
=22
jacfunc
, corresponds to mf
=21
jacfunc
; the size of the bands specified by bandup
and banddown
, corresponds to mf
=24
bandup
and banddown
, corresponds to mf
=25
More options are available when specifying mf directly.
The legal values of mf
are 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, -11, -12, -14, -15, -21, -22, -24, -25.
mf
is a signed two-digit integer, mf
= JSV*(10*METH + MITER),where
func
per df/dy value).
MITER = 3 means chord iteration with an internally generated diagonal Jacobian approximation
(using 1 extra call to func
per df/dy evaluation).
MITER = 4 means chord iteration with a user-supplied banded Jacobian.
MITER = 5 means chord iteration with an internally generated banded Jacobian (using ML+MU+1 extra calls to func
per df/dy evaluation).
If MITER = 1 or 4, the user must supply a subroutine jacfunc
.
The example for integrator lsode
demonstrates how to specify both a banded and full jacobian.
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,
vode will return an error code. See lsoda
for details.
Models may be defined in compiled C or Fortran code, as well as in an R-function. See package vignette for details.
The output will have the attributes *istate*, and *rstate*, two vectors with several useful elements.
if verbose
= TRUE, the settings of istate and rstate will be written to the screen.
the following elements of istate are meaningful:

, lsode
, lsodes
