Dynamic simulation and modeling has become a necessity to process and control engineers, therefore dynamic simulation software is being used constantly for the assessment of control and optimization technologies. This work implements a bifurcation and analysis framework using the recursive projection method to perform bifurcation and eigenvalue analysis over dynamical models implemented in Aspen Dynamics and Aspen Custom Modeler, enabling commercial simulation software users to perform quick and reliable dynamic model bifurcation analysis, without recurring to non-chemical engineering specialized software.
