bvpSolve - Boundary Value Problems of Differential Equations in R

'bvpSolve' is an add-on package for the open source data analysis system R for the numerical treatment of boundary value problems of systems of differential equations

What is in bvpSolve?

bvpSolve contains functions that solve boundary value problems of a system of ordinary differential equations (ODE). The functions provide an interface to the FORTRAN functions twpbwp, twpbvpC, acdc, colsys, colnew and colmod
