Error using bvp4, "singular Jacobian", when I am decreasing the value of a parameter of my equation

1 view (last 30 days)
I am solving a set of linear equations (reduced from a fourth order differential equations with variables coefficients) using bvp4, when I reduce the value of r2 (parameter) below 50e-9 its showing error. Any suggestions please????

Thanks for your quick response. The coefficient matrix is not constant (its function of independent variable 'x'). So is it okay to use \ operator? Can u please suggest me some ways to tackle the problem of having a " singular Jacobian" error when I am reducing the value of r2<50e-9, in the above program??

To use \ the coefficient matrices have to be constants at the time the \ is called.
I do not know enough about how bv4pc works to make suggestions about why the Jacobian is becoming singular.
