To use the secant method to determine the resting membrane potential (Em) for the given parameters in the GHK equation, you can follow these steps in MATLAB:
ghk_eqn
and takes in the membrane potential (x) as the input parameter:main.m385 chars13 lines
secant_method
which takes in the initial guesses (x1se
and x2se
) and the tolerance (tol
) as input parameters:main.m878 chars28 lines
secant_method
function with the initial guesses and the tolerance values to determine the resting membrane potential:main.m298 chars10 lines
Make sure you replace the placeholder values (% initial guess 1
, % initial guess 2
, % error tolerance
) with the appropriate values for your specific problem.
Note: The secant method is an iterative approximation method, so the initial guesses should be chosen close to the expected solution to improve convergence.
