Solving nonLinear equation and Linearized Eqaution using ODE45

14 views (last 30 days)
I've been doing a comparison of the plots for roll, yaw, and pitch of a satellite in GG orbit and I've been unable to get my nonLinear function to relatively match my Linearized equation. I've tried my variant of the equations and the provided variants while only getting the linearized equation to come out correctly. As the linearized equation is just a simplified version of the nonlinear equation, and I've tried known good equations without success, I suspect I am doing something wrong in how I set up the code.
Here is the base equation's that are being worked off off of. The first longer one is set equal to the smaller second one to make the end result that is used in the code for the nonlinear function. This is the same equation set that when linearized, works just fine in ODE45. Since the first one is so long, this is why I broke it down into a smaller equation by using alphabetical variable for the solver.

To start off, the three equations are dependent on each other a little bit so I simplified the equations to alphabetical variables, and then had MATLAB solve them for me. I then just add in what the variables are equal to once in the the ODE45 function. I must be missing something here. Below is the code for my derivation of the equations, plotting results are similar to the know correct ones.
% Simplified nonLinear equations
eq1 = ((A-B+C-D*x6d)/(-F))-x2d;
eq2 = ((G+H*I+L*x6d)/(-K))-x4d;
eq3 = ((M-N*O-P*x4d)/(-R))-x6d;
% Solve 2nd order ODE's to get in terms of x2d, x4d, and x6d
[sol1, sol2, sol3] = solve([eq1, eq2, eq3],[x2d,x4d,x6d]);
% Initial conditions of 1 degree in yaw, roll, pitch
X0 = [1 0 1 0 1 0];
% 1.6 times the rotation period of satellite in seconds
t = 0:60:5676.98*1.6;
[time_lin, solution_lin] = ode45(@(t,x) Lin_func(t,x), t, X0);
[time_nonlin, solution_nonlin] = ode45(@(t,x) nonLin_func(t,x), t, X0);
% X has [X(1), X(2), X(3), X(4), X(5), X(6)]

Ix = 6;
Iy = 8;
Iz = 4;
mu = (3.986*10^14);
Rad = 6878140;
w = sqrt(mu/Rad^3);
% Generate ODE's
d_dt = X*NaN;
d_dt(1) = X(2);
d_dt(2) = (w*(Ix+Iz-Iy)*X(6)-4*(w^2)*(Iy-Iz)*X(1))/Ix;
d_dt(3) = X(4);
d_dt(4) = 3*(w^2)*(Iz-Ix)*X(3)/Iy;

I apologize for leaving out the original equations that the code is based off of. I have updated my posting to include these.

YOu have to express , and . Solve the system
image.png
function du = nonlin(t,y)
fi = y(1);
psi = y(2);
theta = y(3);
% shortcuts
cf = cosd(fi);
cp = cosd(psi);
ct = cosd(theta);
sf = sind(fi);
sp = sind(psi);
st = sind(theta);
% coefficients of fi'', psi'' and theta''
A = [1 -st 0
0 ct*sf cf
0 ct*cf sf];
B(1,1) = long expression1;
B(2,1) = long expression2;
B(3,1) = long expression3;
X = A\B;
du(1:3,1) = y(4:6);
du(4:6,1) = X;
end

Do I input the three expressions as is, or do I input them in solved for fi'', psi'' and theta''?
