egg, have you tried plotting all the times in all the reference frames?
<SilverFox>
all the things*
<SilverFox>
fun fact, we use the most superior unit in bloodwork; L/L
<SilverFox>
litres per litres
<SilverFox>
truly the best unit
<iximeow>
what is measured in L per L?
<SilverFox>
Hematocrit
<iximeow>
oh huh, cool
<SilverFox>
the amount of formed elements in whole blood when centrifuged
<SilverFox>
so your platelets, RBCs and WBCs
<SilverFox>
everything else is nutrient and electrolyte and water basically
<SilverFox>
although it'll probably be late-stage, I'll have to add a Complete Blood Count With Differential to the diagnostic tests, these numbers please my autism

can't tell if using balanced XLR cables for high-current stepper motor porpoises is clever or horrifying
<Ellied>
I mean it probably keeps the EMI under control pretty well by using twisted pairs for each coil, since the "signals" technically are balanced

egg: In a RKF45 implementation, I tried avoiding 6D-vectors by separating position and velocity of the state vectors. I made my f(t, pos, vel) function return the resulting acceleration only, since the returned velocity is the same as the input velocity. I am now implementing the per-step k constant calculations. Every k-constant normally holds a velocity and acceleration component, but since I wanted to avoid
<APlayer>
6D-vectors and my f(t, pos, vel) function returns only the acceleration vector, my k-constants also hold only that. Now, the question is, do I need a separate set of k-constants for the velocities too, or can I refer to the starting velocity?

egg: I mean that the input velocity of the f(t, Y) formula stays the same as the output velocity. So, unless I am missing something, I can just refer to the velocity from Y_n-1 rather than k_n-1?
<egg>
wait the ks and the ys aren't indexed by the same thing, the ks are stages and the ys are steps
<APlayer>
What I might be missing indeed but am not sure of is, do the k constants all hold "variations" of the velocity and acceleration, or does that only apply to k_1, k_2 would hold a and a', k_3 would hold a' and a'' and so on?
<APlayer>
Well, alright, Y_n-1 and k_m-1
<APlayer>
Point being, previous Y and previous k
<egg>
uh
<egg>
using ' in a context where there are derivatives seems ill-advised
<egg>
but I see what you mean
<egg>
and no, you have an arbitrary linear combination
<APlayer>
egg: Judging by f(x, v), x should be the position. But in that case I am confused by the F(x) part - that's the integral of the position, or what?
<APlayer>
I mean, it should be the acceleration, shouldn't it?
<egg>
that's the acceleration as a function of position
<APlayer>
But why F(x)?
<egg>
I called it F because I am bad at names
<egg>
I should have called it γ
<APlayer>
And why is it a function when v is not, then?
<APlayer>
Ah, because v remains unaltered
<egg>
because I don't know what physical problem you're dealing with, but the velocity is just the velocity so I know that the velocity part of f(x, v) is just v
<egg>
(I know that you have a 2nd order ODE, in other words)
<APlayer>
Alright
<APlayer>
So from the evaluation you did, I cannot short-cut the velocity part of the k-constants
<APlayer>
That does suck, but well
<APlayer>
As for the velocity multiplication with h, that's from the Y_n + h(a_21 * k_1) part
<APlayer>
Okay, I am done with the k-constant trickery
<APlayer>
egg: Okay, so I've implemented the integrator up to (and including) the Y_n+1 = Y_n + h * (stuff) and Y*_n+1 = Y*_n + h * (stuff) part. The difference between Y and Y* should be used for the error estimate. But how do I produce anything meaningful out of it?
<APlayer>
egg: "and by Taylor's theorem, it can be shown that (provided f is sufficiently smooth) the local truncation error is proportional to the square of the step size" Huh?
