lsodes.Rd
Solves the initial value problem for stiff systems of ordinary differential equations (ODE) in the form: $$dy/dt = f(t,y)$$ and where the Jacobian matrix df/dy has an arbitrary sparse structure.
The R function lsodes
provides an interface to the FORTRAN ODE
solver of the same name, written by Alan C. Hindmarsh and Andrew
H. Sherman.
The system of ODE's is written as an R function or be defined in compiled code that has been dynamically loaded.

...)
the initial (state) values for the ODE system. If y
has a name attribute, the names will be used to label the output
matrix.
time sequence for which output is wanted; the first
value of times
must be the initial time; if only one step is
to be taken; set times
= NULL
.
either an R-function that computes the values of the
derivatives in the ODE system (the model definition) at time
t
, or a character string giving the name of a compiled
function in a dynamically loaded shared library.
If func
is an R-function, it must be defined as:
func <- function(t, y, parms,...)
. t
is the current
time point in the integration, y
is the current estimate of
the variables in the ODE system. If the initial values y
has
a names
attribute, the names will be available inside func
.
parms
is a vector or list of parameters; ... (optional) are
any other arguments passed to the function.
The return value of func
should be a list, whose first
element is a vector containing the derivatives of y
with
respect to time
, and whose next elements are global values
that are required at each point in times
. The derivatives
must be specified in the same order as the state variables y
.
If func
is
a string, then dllname
must give the name of the shared
library (without extension) which must be loaded before
lsodes()
is called. See package vignette "compiledCode"
for more details.
vector or list of parameters used in func
or
jacfunc
.
relative error tolerance, either a scalar or an array as
long as y
. See details.
absolute error tolerance, either a scalar or an array as
long as y
. See details.
if not NULL
, an R function that computes a
column of the Jacobian of the system of differential equations
\(\partial\dot{y}_i/\partial y_j\),
or a string giving the name of a function or
subroutine in dllname
that computes the column of the
Jacobian (see vignette "compiledCode"
for more about this option).
The R
calling sequence for jacvec
is identical to that of
func
, but with extra parameter j
, denoting the column
number. Thus, jacvec
should be called as: jacvec =
func(t, y, j, parms)
and jacvec
should return a vector
containing column j
of the Jacobian, i.e. its i-th value is
\(\partial\dot{y}_i/\partial y_j\).
If this function is absent, lsodes
will
generate the Jacobian by differences.
the sparsity structure of the Jacobian, one of "sparseint" or "sparseusr", "sparsejan", ..., The sparsity can be estimated internally by lsodes (first option) or given by the user (last two). See details.
the number of nonzero elements in the sparse Jacobian (if this is unknown, use an estimate).
if sparsetype
equal to "sparseusr", a two-columned matrix
with the (row, column) indices to the nonzero elements in the sparse
Jacobian. If sparsetype
= "sparsejan", a vector with the elements
ian followed by he elements jan as used in the lsodes code. See details.
In all other cases, ignored.
if not NULL
, an R function that computes the
function whose root has to be estimated or a string giving the name
of a function or subroutine in dllname
that computes the root
function. The R calling sequence for rootfunc
is identical
to that of func
. rootfunc
should return a vector with
the function values whose root is sought.
if TRUE
: full output to the screen, e.g. will
print the diagnostiscs
of the integration - see details.
only used if dllname
is specified: the number of
constraint functions whose roots are desired during the integration;
if rootfunc
is an R-function, the solver estimates the number
of roots.
if not NULL
, then lsodes
cannot integrate
past tcrit
. The FORTRAN routine lsodes
overshoots its
targets (times points in the vector times
), and interpolates
values for the desired time points. If there is a time beyond which
integration should not proceed (perhaps because of a singularity),
that should be provided in tcrit
.
an optional minimum value of the integration stepsize. In
special situations this parameter may speed up computations with the
cost of precision. Don't use hmin
if you don't know why!
an optional maximum value of the integration stepsize. If
not specified, hmax
is set to the largest difference in
times
, to avoid that the simulation possibly ignores
short-term events. If 0, no maximal size is specified.
initial step size to be attempted; if 0, the initial step size is determined by the solver.
logical, if FALSE
names of state variables are
not passed to function func
; this may speed up the simulation
especially for multi-D models.
the maximum order to be allowed. NULL
uses the
default, i.e. order 12 if implicit Adams method (meth = 1), order 5
if BDF method (meth = 2). Reduce maxord to save storage space.
maximal number of steps per output interval taken by the solver.
the length of the real work array rwork; due to the
sparsicity, this cannot be readily predicted. If NULL
, a
guess will be made, and if not sufficient, lsodes
will return
with a message indicating the size of rwork actually required.
Therefore, some experimentation may be necessary to estimate the
value of lrw
.
For instance, if you get the error:
DLSODES- RWORK length is insufficient to proceed.
Length needed is .ge. LENRW (=I1), exceeds LRW (=I2)
In above message, I1 = 27627 I2 = 25932
set lrw
equal to 27627 or a higher value
the length of the integer work array iwork; due to the
sparsicity, this cannot be readily predicted. If NULL
, a guess will
be made, and if not sufficient, lsodes
will return with a
message indicating the size of iwork actually required. Therefore,
some experimentation may be necessary to estimate the value of
liw
.
a string giving the name of the shared library
(without extension) that contains all the compiled function or
subroutine definitions refered to in func
and
jacfunc
. See package vignette "compiledCode"
.
if not NULL
, the name of the initialisation function
(which initialises values of parameters), as provided in
dllname
. See package vignette "compiledCode"

to perform this check in the code. See package vignette
"compiledCode"

with up to as many rows as elements
in times
and as many columns as elements in y
plus the number of "global"
values returned in the next elements of the return from func
,
plus and additional column for the time value. There will be a row
for each element in times
unless the FORTRAN routine `lsodes'
returns with an unrecoverable error. If y
has a names
attribute, it will be used to label the columns of the output value.

The work is done by the FORTRAN subroutine lsodes
, whose
documentation should be consulted for details (it is included as
comments in the source file src/opkdmain.f
). The implementation
is based on the November, 2003 version of lsodes, from Netlib.
lsodes
is applied for stiff problems, where the Jacobian has a
sparse structure.
There are several choices depending on whether jacvec
is specified and depending on the setting of sparsetype
.
If function jacvec
is present, then it should return the j-th
column of the Jacobian matrix.
There are also several choices for the sparsity specification, selected by
argument sparsetype
.
sparsetype
= "sparseint"
. The sparsity is estimated
by the solver, based on numerical differences.
In this case, it is advisable to provide an estimate of the number
of non-zero elements in the Jacobian (nnz
).
This value can be approximate; upon return the number of nonzero
elements actually required will be known (1st element of attribute
dims
).
In this case, inz
need not be specified.
sparsetype
= "sparseusr"
. The sparsity is determined by
the user. In this case, inz
should be a matrix
, containing indices
(row, column) to the nonzero elements in the Jacobian matrix.
The number of nonzeros nnz
will be set equal to the number of rows
in inz
.
sparsetype
= "sparsejan"
. The sparsity is also determined by
the user.
In this case, inz
should be a vector
, containting the ian
and
jan
elements of the sparse storage format, as used in the sparse solver.
Elements of ian
should be the first n+1
elements of this vector, and
contain the starting locations in jan
of columns 1.. n.
jan
contains the row indices of the nonzero locations of
the Jacobian, reading in columnwise order.
The number of nonzeros nnz
will be set equal to the length of inz
- (n+1).
sparsetype
= "1D"
, "2D"
, "3D"
.
The sparsity is estimated by the solver, based on numerical differences.
Assumes finite differences in a 1D, 2D or 3D regular grid - used by
functions ode.1D
, ode.2D
, ode.3D
.
Similar are "2Dmap"
, and "3Dmap"
, which also include a
mapping variable (passed in nnz).
The input parameters rtol
, and atol
determine the
error control performed by the solver. See lsoda
for details.
The diagnostics of the integration can be printed to screen
by calling diagnostics
. If verbose
= TRUE
,
the diagnostics will written to the screen at the end of the integration.
See vignette("deSolve") for an explanation of each element in the vectors containing the diagnostic properties and how to directly access them.
Models may be defined in compiled C or FORTRAN code, as well as
in an R-function. See package vignette "compiledCode"
for details.
More information about models defined in compiled code is in the package vignette ("compiledCode"); information about linking forcing functions to compiled code is in forcings.
Examples in both C and FORTRAN are in the doc/examples/dynload
subdirectory
of the deSolve
package directory.
lsodes
can find the root of at least one of a set of constraint functions
rootfunc
of the independent and dependent variables. It then returns the
solution at the root if that occurs sooner than the specified stop
condition, and otherwise returns the solution according the specified
stop condition.
Caution: Because of numerical errors in the function
rootfun
due to roundoff and integration error, lsodes
may
return false roots, or return the same root at two or more
nearly equal values of time
.
