    MATLAB REVIEW/TUTORIAL

    Chemical Reaction Engineering CBE 40445


    Aug 29

    Matlab Basics

    What does Matlab stand for? Access


    Can

    access Matlab from both UNIX and PCs in ND clusters Can buy student version from OIT Applications Requested & Approved for Fall 2008
    MATLAB

    7.6

    Can

    use Matlab compatible program (i.e. octave http://www.gnu.org/software/octave/ )

    Matlab Basics

    Things you should remember


    Matlab

    command window Command line (>>) Can execute commands directly from command line >> a = [ 1 2 ; 2 1 ] 1 2 a 2 1
    Perform

    arithmatic, trigonometric, and exponential operations

    Can

    execute program files

    Matlab Basics

    5 arithmetic operators ( + , - , * , / , ^ ) Elementary Matlab functions


    exp(x),

    sqrt (x), log(x), log10(x), abs(x)

    Trigonometric functions
    sin(x),

    cos(x), tan(x), etc.

    Go through example commands in Matlab

    Matlab Basics - Programs

    Important things to remember


    Variable names are cAse seNSitiVe All variables are stored until program exits or clear function is used Format of numerical value output can be changed with format command

    Format short long Format short e/f/g

    Scientific notation, floating point, or whichever makes more sense

    Semi-colons suppress system response

    You can change Matlabs default formats if you want

    Matlab Basics - Programs

    Why do we write programs?


    When

    you need more than one line of code When program will be used again When a permanent record is desired When occasional upgrading will be required When substantial debugging will be required When you want or need to transfer to another person (a.k.a to your teacher!)

    Structured Programming

    Refers to the organization and format of a program Organization: how do we complete a task?
    Input:

    read values from a source Process: calculate/manipulate numbers Decide: choose a path based on a requirement Output: present result(s)

    Matlab Basics - Programs

    What to include on your program


    Purpose Name

    Date

    originated Date revised Description of input/output: number, meaning, type, etc. Descriptive comments throughout!

    Description Example
    %******************************************************* % Purpose: MATLAB Tutorial % Name: Dr. Jes Anderson % Date originated: Aug. 18, 2008 % Date revised: Aug. 29, 2008 % Description: Remind students of basic matlab operations % and programming skills % %*******************************************************

    Matlab Basics - Programming


    Example 1 Program basics Example 2 Vector and matrices review Example 3 Creating graphs Example 4 Functions Example 5 Systems of Equations Example 6 Integrals and ODEs

    Example 1: Program Basics


    Go to Matlab Important skills


    Start Stop Help Clear

    Example 2: Vectors and Matrices


    Go to m.file Important skills


    Transpose Perform

    operations on matrices/vectors Perform operations on elements of matrices/vectors (dot operations)


    Must

    be performed on matrices of same order

    Find

    size, diagonal, change elements of matrices/vectors

    Example 3: Plotting

    Go to Matlab Important skills


    Plot

    in both 2D and 3D Apply axis labels, titles, legends Change output colors/shapes/etc. Make new figures or subplots within figures **Be able to communicate your data to others!!!

    Creating Graphs Misc.

    Some more plot customization commands to type before plot() or plot3() figure(n) opens a new figure window subplot(m,n,p) divides a single figure window into an m x n grid and puts your next command in the pth spot grid on/off displays a grid hold on/off superimposes plots
