Construct the High Irradiance Response (HIRES) problem.

The “High Irradiance Response” ODE (HIRES) from plant physiology describes how light is involved in morphogenesis. It was proposed by Schäfer (1975) and named “HIRES” by Hairer and Wanner (1996).

It is a system of 8 nonlinear differential equations,

\[\dot u(t) = f(u(t))\]

and a common testproblem for ODE solvers that can handle stiff problems.

The following bibtex(s) point to the original paper about the HIRES model and the book by Hairer and Wanner. (Source: Google Scholar).
