Construct the ROBER problem due to Robertson (1966).

The ROBER problem describes the kinetics of an auto-catalytic reaction, and was proposed by Robertson (1966). It was named “ROBER” by Hairer and Wanner (1996).

It is a three-dimensional, stiff initial value problem,

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

and a common test problem for numerical solvers for stiff differential equations.

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