6. Leading order approximation = ? Leonid V. Kalachev 2003 UM

15. Important problem: determination of the minimal number of phase variables needed to describe the characteristic behavior of large scale systems. Different approaches are based on the presence of a wide range of characteristic time-scales in a chemical system: Quasi-steady state assumption Quasi-equilibrium assumption Sensitivity analysis, etc. A Method to Determine the Dimension of Long-Time Dynamics in Multi-Scale Systems Leonid V.
