Hello
I have a plot of a two-layer fluids. I want to fill the plots with different color (lower layer red- upper layer blue)
I dont know how to use 'fill' command to do this.
would you please help me?

Here's your figure. Which regions do you want to fill?

An easiest way would be using area() instead of plot() and patch():
v= 0.6;
r=2;
gam1= (1-v)/((r*v)-1) %for constant depth (F*=gam1=2) .here we should put a smaller gamma hence i put 1.15
gam1 = 2.0000
% TRY DIFFERENT NUMBER OF GAM RESULT IN STRANGE BEHAVIOUR
gam=1.44;
xil=(9^(2/3)*((1+gam)^(2/3)))^(1/2)
xil = 2.8003
xiu= ((v*xil^2)+((9^(2/3))*(v^(2/3))*(gam^(2/3))*((r-1)*(2/3))*((1-v)^(1/3))))^(1/2)
xiu = 2.5755
xi_star= ( ((xiu^2)-v*xil^2)/(1-v)) ^(1/2);
xi=linspace(0,xi_star,1000);
fl=@(xi) ((xiu^2-(v*xil^2))/(6*v*(r-1)))+(((v-1)*xi.^2)/(6*v*(r-1)));
fu=@(xi) (((r*v*xil^2)-xiu^2)/(6*v*(r-1)))+(((1-r*v)*xi.^2)/(6*v*(r-1)))+((xiu^2-(v*xil^2))/(6*v*(r-1)))+(((v-1)*xi.^2)/(6*v*(r-1)));
figure(2)
hold on
B =area(xi, fu(xi));
B.FaceColor = [0 0 1];
B.EdgeColor = [0 0 1];
B.LineWidth = 2;
hold on
xii=linspace(xi_star,xil);
fll=@(xii) ((xil^2-xii.^2)./(6));
C =area(xii, fll(xii));
C.FaceColor = [0 0 1];
C.EdgeColor = [0 0 1];
C.LineWidth = 2;
A =area(xi, fl(xi));
A.FaceColor = [1 0 0];
A.EdgeColor = [1 0 0];
A.LineWidth = 2;
