Description:Solver for systems of equations and ODEs/DAEs.
ASCEND is a modelling and simulation environment for
solving systems of nonlinear equations. It includes
a modelling language, in which you write the equations
that represent your system-to-be-modelled, as well as
a user interface that lets to interact with your model,
solve it, adjust values, and report results. There is also
a model library with many example problems, and a database of
thermodynamic properties for various materials.
.
ASCEND was developed at Carnegie Mellon University starting
in the 1980s and continues as an active open source project.
.
This package includes both the mature Tcl/Tkl GUI and
the newer PyGTK-based GUI, as well as documentation
and the model library.
