It looks as if ode45 interprets that "s" is a time? I'm confused as to how interpret the result of the routine which has dimensions of 100x200. I was expecting 1 x 200, i.e. independent of time.

Just interpret your results for y(1) and y(2) as functions of distance, not of time.
So "tspan" in your case is a distance vector, not a time vector.
Best wishes
