A Class of Linearly-implicit Runge-kutta Methods for Multibody Systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
We consider a special class of partitioned linearly-implicit Runge-Kutta methods for the solution of multibody systems in index 3 formulation. In contrast to implicit methods these methods require only the solution of linear systems for the algebraic variables. We study convergence and consistency of the methods and give numerical results for a special method of order 4 and comparisons.

Implicit Runge - Kutta Integration of the Equations of Multibody Dynamics in Descriptor Form
Implicit Runge-Kutta integration algorithms based on generalized coordinate partitioning are presented for numerical solution of the differential-algebraic equations of motion of multibody dynamics. Second order integration formulas are derived from well known first order Runge-Kutta integrators, defining independent generalized coordinates and their first time derivative as functions of indepe...
متن کاملApplication of approximate matrix factorization to high order linearly implicit Runge-Kutta methods
Linearly implicit Runge-Kutta methods with approximate matrix factorization can solve efficiently large systems of differential equations that have a stiff linear part, e.g. reaction-diffusion systems. However, the use of approximate factorization usually leads to loss of accuracy, which makes it attractive only for low order time integration schemes. This paper discusses the application of app...
متن کاملLinearly Implicit Domain Decomposition Methods for Nonlinear Time-Dependent Reaction-Diffusion Problems
A new family of linearly implicit fractional step methods is proposed for the efficient numerical solution of a class of nonlinear time-dependent reaction-diffusion equations. By using the method of lines, the original problem is first discretized in space via a mimetic finite difference technique. The resulting differential system of stiff nonlinear equations is locally decomposed by suitable ...
متن کاملLinearly implicit methods for nonlinear parabolic equations
We construct and analyze combinations of rational implicit and explicit multistep methods for nonlinear parabolic equations. The resulting schemes are linearly implicit and include as particular cases implicit-explicit multistep schemes as well as the combination of implicit Runge-Kutta schemes and extrapolation. An optimal condition for the stability constant is derived under which the schemes...
متن کاملWaveform relaxation methods for implicit differential equations
We apply a Runge-Kutta-based waveform relaxation method to initial-value problems for implicit differential equations. In the implementation of such methods, a sequence of nonlinear systems has to be solved iteratively in each step of the integration process. The size of these systems increases linearly with the number of stages of the underlying Runge-Kutta method, resulting in high linear alg...
