Hi John, Here is a page that might be of interest (other ODE solver integrated via f2py, maybe a little outdated): http://moncs.cs.mcgill.ca/people/slacoste/research/report/SummerReport.html IIRC, another system for solving ODEs was developed at the same place. David ---- JJ wrote:
Hello. I am just about to start building a somewhat complex dynamic model that will incorporate a large number (~50-100) of differential equations and parameters to be estimated. This is my first project of this type, so I am on a steep learning curve. I could build it using Matlab's Simulink, but I would rather build it in Python. I have looked for good graphical interfaces to ODE solvers in Python but have not found any that seem suitable. I would not mind using the Scipy ODE solvers, but I have a couple of quick, simple questions before I invest a lot of time in that direction. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
-- The (few) examples I have seen in using Scipy's ODE functions are only small, simple ones. Is there anything to prevent use of the solvers for larger, more complex systems of ODEs?
-- Has anyone seen a good tutorial on use of Scipy's ODE solver for larger (or at least not tiny) problems?
-- Are there other Open Source packages out there that might offer more options than Scipy's ODE solver? I dont want to make this job any harder than I need to. Ive looked but didnt see any.
-- Simulink offers use of various model blocks to simplify model building. I can write my own, but is there any public code already available along these lines for use with Scipy's ODE solver?
Please pardon the simplicity of my questions and thanks for your help. Would anyone be willing to allow me to write privately if I have a few troubles along the way?
John
