Abstract

A common way of making a high index DAE amenable to numerical solution is that of index reduction. A classical way of reducing a DAE’s index is the dummy derivative method of Mattsson and Söderlind, however for many problems this method only provides a local index 1 DAE. Using the Signature Matrix based structural analysis of Pryce to inform the dummy derivative method we present a way to make this reduction global, where instead of picking new dummy derivatives at run time and thus changing the overall structure of the problem you instead have to update a list of parameters.
