Hello all, I'm trying to plot the graph of 0.01*x''(t) + [x'(t)^2] = 0 , x(0)=1,x(1)=0, using the following program: >ode:={0.01*diff(x(t),[t$2]) + (diff(x),t)^2 = 0 , x(0)=1,x(1)=0}; >S:=dsolve(ode,x(t),type=numeric,method=bvp[midrich]); >plots[odeplot](S,[t,x(t)],0..1,color=green,style=line,symbol=square,symbolsize=8); Before I can write the third line of the above code, I get a message saying "Newton iteration is not converging." I have tried increasing the absolute error,by adding the item "abserr=1e1" next to the item "method=bvp[midrich]" in the second line of the source code, but no joy there--the error message still comes up. Can someone please tell me what I can do to eliminate the error message and hence plot my graph? Or is there an alternative Maple program that I can use to plot the graph? Please note that the above program is NOT an initial value program, but a boundary value one. Thank you.
