bvpSolve-package {bvpSolve}R Documentation

Solvers for Boundary Value Problems (BVP) of Ordinary Differential Equations

Description

Functions that solve boundary value problems of a system of stiff ordinary differential equations (ODE)

The functions provide an interface to the FORTRAN code twpbvp written by J.R. Cash and M.H. Wright.

and also implements a shooting method
