CHEM101 Lecture Notes - Euler Method
Document Summary
Solving cellular functions involves nding the values of the variables that satisfy a set of differential equations. Here is an example of how to solve a simple cellular function: Here, we apply the euler technique, which includes expanding a rst-order taylor series to approximate the solution at each time step. Let"s assume that the initial concentrations of x and y are x0 and y0. We can then use the following algorithm to solve the differential equations: choose a time step, dt, and the total simulation time, t. Initialize x and y to their initial values, x0 and y0.
