The monomolecular growth model

Description

The derivative function of the monomolecular growth model, an example of a one-dimensional autonomous ODE system.

Usage

monomolecular(t, y, parameters)

Arguments

t

The value of t, the independent variable, to evaluate the derivative at. Should be a numeric vector of length one.

y

The value of y, the dependent variable, to evaluate the derivative at. Should be a numeric vector of length one.

parameters

The values of the parameters of the system. Should be a numeric vector with parameters specified in the following order: β, K.

Details

monomolecular evaluates the derivative of the following ODE at the point (t, y):

dy/dt = β(K - y).

Its format is designed to be compatible with ode from the deSolve package.

Value

Returns a list containing the value of the derivative at (t, y).
