Sensitivity analysis of parameter combinations

For models frequently encountered in system dynamics a method is derived to find the direction in which the parameter vectors should be perturbed, by a given magnitude, so as to maximize the disturbance to the solution trajectory. The method is thus useful for analysing the effects of a combination...

Summary:For models frequently encountered in system dynamics a method is derived to find the direction in which the parameter vectors should be perturbed, by a given magnitude, so as to maximize the disturbance to the solution trajectory. The method is thus useful for analysing the effects of a combination of parameter changes on a system. The method also yields an ordering of the parameters with respect to their sensitivity.
