Abstract

Differential-algebraic equations (DAEs) arise in many ways in many types of problems. In this expository paper we discuss a variety of situations where we have found mixed symbolic-numerical calculations to be essential. The paper is designed to both familiarize the reader with several fundamental DAE ideas and to present some applications. The situations discussed include the analysis of DAEs, the solution of DAEs, and applications which include DAEs. Both successes and challenges will be presented.
