[scilab-Users] identify ode parameters scilab

[Maso Ricci]

Dear Jérôme,

thanks for your kind reply, sorry I was a little cryptic: yes I intended 
the coefficients in the equation to describe it.
For instance, if I try to solve the simple equation:

dx/dt = -kx

using the ‘ode ‘ function in Scilab, it is possible to solve the 
equation for different value of the parameter ‘k’.

What I am trying to do is slightly different. I would like to fit the 
differential equation to experimental data in order to evaluate the k 
parameter.

Do you have any suggestions ?

I also attached a scilab script to make this more clear

Best regards

Maso
