What is System of ode: Definition and 14 Discussions

In mathematics, an ordinary differential equation (ODE) is a differential equation containing one or more functions of one independent variable and the derivatives of those functions. The term ordinary is used in contrast with the term partial differential equation which may be with respect to more than one independent variable.

    Solving a System of ODE for Steady State

    I am trying to find the steady states in the ODE system. Assuming y0 = 2.5 * 10^5, I want to calculate y1, y2, y3 at the steady state. I do not understand how this would be possible, because only y0 is given and the following: d0 = 0.003, d1 = 0.008, d2 = 0.05, d3 = 1, ry = 0.008, ay = 1.6/100...

    Can Euler Forward or 4th Order Runge-Kutta Methods Approximate Systems of ODEs?

    My question is about whether it's possible to use the Euler Forward or 4th order Runge-Kutta Methods to approximate the following system ( where the differential of other equations are on the right hand side) : $$ \begin{cases} \frac{dy_1}{dt} = f_1(y_1,y_2,y'_2, ... , y_n, y'_n, t) \\...
