Trying to plot a function of time while a variable changes values at different time intervals

As the title states I'm trying to plot a function (or two actually), while a variable changes at different variables. The program just continues to run and doesn't actually stop so it's stuck somewhere and I can't figure out where. Also would this work once it's able to complete? I don't like having the beta inside the loop, but get an error whiles outside.
clear all
clc
L_phi = -2.729;
L_sigma_a = -43.692;
lambda = L_phi;
tau = 1/L_phi;
t = [0:0.01:5];
for t <= 5
if t < 2.5
sigma_a = -3;
elseif t >=2.5
sigma_a = 0;
for beta = (L_sigma_a/L_phi).*sigma_a;
phidot = beta.*(1-exp(lambda.*t));
phi = beta.*(t-1/tau.*exp(tau.*t));
end
end
end
figure(1)
plot(t,phidot)
title('phidot vs time')
xlabel('seconds')
ylabel('degrees')
figure(2)
plot(t, phi)
title('phi vs time')
xlabel('seconds')
ylabel('degrees')
Unrecognized function or variable 'phidot'.
Error in HW1MAE503 (line 23)
plot(t,phidot)
