CONCLUSIONS
• Response is dependent on the ode solver, more over responses are
same.
• Response is highly dependent on linear or non-linear formulation
near critical values
• Responses for dt = 10-5s and 10-6s are nearly overlapping for all the
graphs in the stable regions. Deviation is observable near dying
region.
