Calculation of the First-Order Derivative of the Explicit Troscianko Equation

Description

DETE is used to calculate the first-order derivative of the explicit Troscianko equation at a given x-value.

Usage

DETE(P, x)

Arguments

P	the parameters of the explicit Troscianko equation.
x	the x-value used in the explicit Troscianko equation.

Details

The first-order derivative of the explicit Troscianko equation at a given x-value is:

h(x) = \left\{\alpha_{1}+\frac{2\,\alpha_{2}}{a}\,x-\frac{x}{a}\,\left[1-\left(\frac{x}{a}\right)^2\right]^{-1}\right\}\,\exp\left\{\alpha_{0}+\alpha_{1}\left(\frac{x}{a}\right)+\alpha_{2}\left(\frac{x}{a}\right)^2\right\}\,\sqrt{ 1-\left(\frac{x}{a}\right)^2 },

where P has four parameters: a, \alpha_{0}, \alpha_{1}, and \alpha_{2}.

Note

The argument P in the DETE function has the same parameters, as those in the ETE function.
