I need a parametric plot of a curve whose components are defined by:$$\left(\int_0^x\cos(f(t))dt,\int_0^x\sin(f(t))dt\right)$$ where $f(t)$ is an InterpolatingFunction (obtained from NDSolve). The Code I show below works fine, but depending on $f(t)$ can take very long to produce the output. Any suggestion to make it faster?...I mean, I am almost sure that the problem does not belong to ParametricPlot but to the way I define the integral with the variable extremum. 

s = NDSolve[{y'[x] == g[x], g'[x] == -60 (1 - x) Cos[y[x]], y[0] == 0,g[0]== 1.2}, {y, g}, {x, 0, 1}];
f[x_] = Evaluate[y[x] /. s];
intcos[x_Real] := NIntegrate[Cos[f[t]], {t, 0, x}];
intsin[x_Real] := NIntegrate[Sin[f[t]], {t, 0, x}];
ParametricPlot[{intcos[x], intsin[x]}, {x, 0, 1}]

Note The code does not produce an output in mathematica 11, but work fine in mathematica 10, but I am going to make another question about that.

  • $\begingroup$ I was asking two different things about the same code. I think the best was to open two questions. $\endgroup$

For this you already got an elegant answer from @Pillsy.

But here, I will propose an alternative approach using Table and Thread.

This is certainly faster than yours but not the one suggested by @Pillsy.

s = NDSolve[{y'[t] == g[t], g'[t] == -60 (1 - t) Cos[y[t]], y[0] == 0, g[0] == 1.2},
            {y, g}, {t, 0, 1}];

f[t_] = y[t] /. s[[1]];

intcos[x_Real] := NIntegrate[Cos[f[t]], {t, 0, x}];

intsin[x_Real] := NIntegrate[Sin[f[t]], {t, 0, x}];

incosdata = Table[intcos[x], {x, 0, 1, 0.02}];

insindata = Table[intsin[x], {x, 0, 1, 0.02}];

ListLinePlot[Thread[{incosdata, insindata}]]

It can be quicker if you use parallel computing.

In:

Clear[s, x, y, g, f, xys]
s = NDSolve[{y'[x] == g[x], g'[x] == -60 (1 - x) Cos[y[x]], y[0] == 0,
     g[0] == 1.2}, {y, g}, {x, 0, 1}];
f[x_] = Evaluate[y[x] /. s] // First ;
intcos[x_Real] := NIntegrate[Cos[f[t]], {t, 0, x}];
intsin[x_Real] := NIntegrate[Sin[f[t]], {t, 0, x}];
xys = ParallelTable[{intcos[x], intsin[x]}, {x, 0, 1, 
    0.01}]; (*Time is 2.84873 seconds, 4 Wolfram Kernels*)

ListLinePlot[xys]
