Undefined variable in a self-written function
Show older comments
Hello everyone,
I am facing a probelm, below is the codes of the function.
function para = MH(para, x)
A = para(1);
mu = para(2);
Ms = para(3);
sigma = para(4);
C = para(5);
kb=1.38065e-23;
T=295;
distribution = @(d) exp(-(log(d/mu).^2/(2*sigma^2)))./(d*sigma*sqrt((2*pi)));
langevin = @(d) coth((d.^3*pi./6*Ms.*x)/(kb*T))-(kb*T)./(pi./6*Ms.*x.*d.^3);
integrand = langevin(d).*distribution(d).*(pi/6)*d.^3;
para = A*integral(@(d) integrand,0,200e-9)+C.*x;
end
When the whole program ran, the erro code says the 'd' is undefined. d is the variable of integration whose limit of integration is (0,200e-9), how should I define 'd' in this situation? This is my first time using 'integral' function.
When it's prossible, may I ask another question? I am trying to fit a M(H) curve, the formulation is:

where
, 
the unknown parameters are A, Ms, Sigma, Mu and C.
The dimension of variable x is (61×1).
The problem is, I once successed running the program (by giving d a arbitrary value in this function), but the part 'intergrand' doesn't be integrated at all, the returned parameter Ms, Sigma and Mu doesn't change, only A and C changed, may I ask what's the reason for that? Thanks for any help in advance!

integrand = @(d) langevin(d).*distribution(d).*(pi/6)*d.^3;
para = A*integral(integrand,0,200e-9)+C.*x;

You are integrating over a fairly small area, 0 to 200e-9 . My guess is that the integral is coming out as nearly 0 compared to C.*x
