bvpSolve: Solvers for Boundary Value Problems of Differential Equations

Functions that solve boundary value problems ('BVP') of systems of ordinary differential equations ('ODE') and differential algebraic equations ('DAE'). The functions provide an interface to the FORTRAN functions 'twpbvpC', 'colnew/colsys', and an R-implementation of the shooting method. Mazzia, F., J.R. Cash and K.
