Adaptive stiff solvers at low accuracy and complexity

TL;DR: This paper proposes to use a monitor function defined by comparing a measure of the local variability of the solution times the used step size and the order of magnitude of the solutions instead of the classical approach based on some local error estimation for the adaptive algorithm.

Experimental analysis and modeling of internal combustion engine operating with wet ethanol

TL;DR: In this paper, a mathematical model was proposed to predict the effect that the use of wet ethanol has on the performance of internal combustion engines, along with experimental data, which showed good ability to predict engine performance based on the variations of power, torque, conversion efficiency and specific fuel consumption.

Application of Robust Control Tools to the Simultaneous Design and Control of Dynamic Systems

TL;DR: In this paper, the simultaneous design and control problem is posed as a nonlinear constrained optimization problem and compared to the design of a mixing tank process using a dynamic optimization approach, and the expected computational burden required by this method for large-scale processes is also estimated.

Modeling of Nociceptor Transduction in Skin Thermal Pain Sensation

TL;DR: A model of nociceptor transduction in skin thermal pain is developed in order to build direct relationship between stimuli and neural response, which incorporates a skin thermomechanical model for the calculation of temperature, damage and thermal stress at the location of nocentre and a revised Hodgkin-Huxley form model for frequency modulation.

Comparing Numerical Methods for Ordinary Differential Equations

TL;DR: According to criteria involving the number of function evaluations, overhead cost, and reliability, the best general-purpose method, if function evaluations are not very costly, is one due to Bulirsch and Stoer, however, when function evaluated methods are relatively expensive, variable-order methods based on Adams formulas are best.
