Hi All
I have the crack energy equation :
In which R and G are numbers , also c and m. N is loading cycle : so it's a signal.
in which rho is defined as :
Having the second equation, how can I derivate it with respect to N numerically ?

If ‘N’ is a vector, use gradient on it, then multiply that result by the other term in the expression.

My pleasure!
The MATLAB gradient function calculates the central difference approximation of the numerical derivative. Mathematically, Gradient is a specific term that the gradient function actually creates with a matrix argument. With a vector, the MATLAB gradient function returns the derivative of the vector. See the documentation for a full description of the function and its use.
