如何利用bvp4c解决微分方程的边值问题的几个例子。

function trbvp
%TRBVP  Exercise for Example 3 of the BVP tutorial.
%   This problem is studied in section 5.4 of B.A. Finlayson, The Method of
%   Weighted Residuals and Variational Principles, Academic, New York, 1972.
%   It arises when modelling a tubular reactor with axial dispersion.  An
%   isothermal situation with n-th order irreversible reaction leads to 
%   
%      y'' = Pe*(y' - R*y^n)
%   
%   Here Pe is the axial Peclet number and R is the reaction rate group.
%   The boundary conditions are
%   
%      y'(0) = Pe*(y(0) - 1),    y'(1) = 0.
%   
%   Finlayson compares results he obtains with an orthogonal collocation
%   method to results obtained by others with finite differences when 
%   Pe = 1, R = 2, and n = 2.  These results are compared here to results
%   obtained with BVP4C. BVPVAL is used to get a smoother graph of y(x).
