When I plot f towards time amplitude is increasing I don't know why. It should be constant. what's wrong?

1 view (last 30 days)
f(1)=10; %% Ratation angle (Rad)
w(1)=0; %% Angular velocity (Rad/sec)
E(1)=0; %% Angular acceleration
t(1)=0; %% Time vector (sec)
dt=0.001;
N=10000;
%% The main code
for i= 1:N
t(i+1)=t(i)+dt;
E(i)=-f(i);
w(i+1)=w(i)+E(i)*dt;
f(i+1)=f(i)+w(i)*dt;
end
plot(t,f);

I don't see why f should be constant, but nor is it monotonically increasing. Once I fix your initialization code, I see a sine-like wave:
clear
N=10000;
[f,w,E,t]=deal(zeros(1,N));
f(1)=10;
dt=0.001;
%% The main code
for i= 1:N
t(i+1)=t(i)+dt;
E(i)=-f(i);
w(i+1)=w(i)+E(i)*dt;
f(i+1)=f(i)+w(i)*dt;
end
plot(t,f);
