Singularities and groups in bifurcation theory

TL;DR: Singularities and groups in bifurcation theory as mentioned in this paper have been used to solve the problem of finding a group of singularities in a set of problems with multiple solutions.

Global analysis of the multiplicity features of multi-reaction lumped-parameter systems

TL;DR: In this paper, a systematic, efficient scheme is presented for finding parameter values corresponding to a specific number of solutions. But this scheme is not suitable for large-scale systems, where many chemical reactions occur simultaneously with a large number of parameters.

Multiplicity features of reacting systems. Dependence of the steady-states of a CSTR on the residence time

TL;DR: Singularity theory with a distinguished parameter, as developed by Golubitsky and Schaeffer, is a very useful tool for predicting the influence of changes in a control or design variable on the steady-state of lumped-parameter systems as mentioned in this paper.

Some nonlinear dynamics of a heated channel

TL;DR: In this article, the drift flux model is used to make the set of equations dimensionless to ensure the mutual independence of the dimensionless variables and parameters: the steady-state inlet velocity v, the inlet subcooling number N sub and the phase change number N pch.
