In solving a control type dif eq with NDSolve I have the following question. Suppose the eq is of the following simplified form y'[t]==a*f[y[t]]-b*y[t] y[0]==0 How to define f so that it starts at f=1, and changes to f=0 when y reaches ymax, and then changes back to f=1 when y reaches ymin, and so on in oscilatory fashion?
