Refactor model to incorporate an Equilibrium object... #35

Open davidrpugh opened 9 years ago

Need to refactor the code to include an Equilibrium object. The Model class then "has a" Equilibrium class as an attribute. The `Equilibrium object should have solvers that allow us to use either non-linear optimization or root-finding to solve for the steady state of the model.

Actually not sure whether this is still necessary. Currently, because of multiplicity, we are solving for equilibria via simulation and are not using either root finding or non-linear optimization to find the steady state for a given initial condition (and model parameters).
