I've used optimization of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lyapunov_function https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lyapunov_function in my Bachelor thesis https://github.com/Artimi/neng https://github.com/Artimi/neng to do that.
- 0cf8612b2e1e 2y agoSimulation is fun and understandable by many more than a block of math. Specially if using a more complex problem where there might not be an analytical solution.
- tonyarkles 2y agoTo take that a step further, problems with analytical solutions are fun to simulate because you can use the analytical solution to verify that your simulator is working correctly.
- laurent_du 2y agoThat's a good point, and I'd add that, in the opposite direction, running a simulation can be a good way to convince yourself that your analytical solution is correct.
