Int. step, tolerance and max. iterations for
adjustment. • |
Show values ? |

Shows the graph coordinates. |
Verifies the kinetics
with the given rate parameters to compare the computed vs. the experimental
concentrations or optimizes the kinetic parameters,
leading to the best fit, through sequential simplex
minimization [Burkardt, 2011]. This is based on a particular
embedded reaction mechanism
(A → B → C),
through a system of ODEs, ordinary differential equations.
Plots the experimental and computed data
vs time. |
