DAE Tools Project Files

daetools version 1.1.0

  * Implemented sensitivity calculation (through Sundials IDAS DAE solver).
  * Implemented steady-state and dynamic optimization capabilities (Bonmin).
    - the optimization variables can be Continuous, Integer or Binary
    - the constraints can be Equality or Non-equality constraints
    Second order derivatives cannot be calculated. The Quasi-Newton 
    approximation of second derivatives by IPOPT's limited-memory 
    quasi-Newton method (L-BFGS) is used instead.
  * Compiled Trilinos Amesos for Windows (KLU, SuperLU and Lapack LA 
    solvers).
  * GNU/Linux port now uses and installs SuperLU 4.1 as a shared library.
    Windows port uses the same version but as a static library.
  * Trilinos Amesos is used as static libraries and not distributed anymore. 
  * Modified installation packages so that binary packages for pyAmdACML,
    pyIntelMKL, pyIntelPardiso are not distributed anymore. 
    Users have to download them and compile the projects themselves.
  * Modified installation packages so that header cDAE files and binaries
    are not installed by default.Users have to download and compile the 
    projects themselves.
  * The simulation now can be reset and re-ran by using the functions 
    Reset/Run or ReRun from daeSimulation.
  * Equations and state transition networks now can be specified in the 
    constructor. However to access the runtime information about domains and
    parameters one still has to declare equations in the DeclareEquations 
    function.
  * Changed About dialog and added credits and licence information for all 
    free software libraries used.
  * Added Documentation menu item to daePlotter.
  * adSingleNodeArray and adConstantNodeArray changed. Now the adouble_array
    class supports the operation on the arrays of sixe 1 and size n.
  * From all template functions removed non-necessary parts (never executed).
  * The new folder structure defined:
    - Activity, Core, DataReporting, IDAS_DAESolver, BONMIN_MINLPSolver
    - pyActivity, pyCore, pyDataReporting, pyIDAS, pyBONMIN
  * Added function IsLinear and IsFunctionOfVariables to adNode.
    Their purpose is to help in determining the type of 
    equations/constraints: linear or nonlinear.
  * Updated documentation {installing, getting started and user guide}
  * Added new tutorials covering the basics of optimization
  * Added several new functions to daeLog_t class.
  * Fixed bugs:
    - in the functions pow, sqrt, log, log10 (division by zero). 
    - in the integral function
    - in the function CreatePoints in daeDomain;
      the lower bound was always set to 0.
    - in saving d and dt functions as MathML.
    - in functions Create_adouble and Calculate_dt in daeModel.
