1-015-DimensionlessVariables-TechniqueNarrative
This material introduces the idea of ``rescaling'' for ordinary differential equations (ODE's) by the use of dimensionless variables. In practice this is an extremely common and useful prelude to the analysis and solution of ODE's.

2016-Langtangen-Pedersen - Scaling of Differential Equations
Nowadays, the greatest practical benefit of scaling is related to running numerical simulations, since scaling greatly simplifies the choice of values for the input data and makes the simulations results more widely applicable.
