Two different solutions for one differential equation (population model)
Ältere Kommentare anzeigen
I'll try solving the ODE:
Substituting 
Transforming to: 
Solving I get: 
Finally, after back substitution: 
complete solution: 
what's equivalent to: 

Now same stuff with MATLAB:
syms u(t); syms c1 c2 u0 real;
D = diff(u,t,1) == c1*u-c2*u^2;
k2 = u;
cond = k2(0) == u0;
S = dsolve(D,cond);
pretty(S)
Receiving: 

I was hoping these expressions have some equivalence so I was plotting them:
c1 = 4; c2 = 2; u0 = 1;
syms t
P1 = (c1)/(1-exp(-c1*t)+c1/u0*exp(-c1*t));
fplot(P1)
hold on
P2 = -(c1*(tanh(atanh((c1 - 2*c2*u0)/k1) - (c1*t)/2) - 1))/(2*c2);
fplot(P2)
but no luck there. I know that's again a quite complex question, but on MathStack one told me these solutions are equvialent, so I don't see a reason for the dissonance.

Most welcome. We learn by making mistakes.
Please just keep it. So others can learn.
