Implementing Adams Methods with Preassigned Stepsize Ratios
نویسندگان
چکیده
Runge-Kutta and Adams methods are the most popular codes to solve numerically nonstiff ODEs. The Adams methods are useful to reduce the number of function calls, but they usually require more CPU time than the Runge-Kutta methods. In this work we develop a numerical study of a variable step length Adams implementation, which can only take preassigned step-size ratios. Our aim is the reduction of the CPU time of the code by means of the precalculation of some coefficients. We present several numerical tests that show the behaviour of the proposed implementation.

Nordsieck representation of high order predictor-corrector Obreshkov methods and their implementation
Predictor-corrector (PC) methods for the numerical solution of stiff ODEs can be extended to include the second derivative of the solution. In this paper, we consider second derivative PC methods with the three-step second derivative Adams-Bashforth as predictor and two-step second derivative Adams-Moulton as corrector which both methods have order six. Implementation of the proposed PC method ...
متن کاملEquilibrium States for Multistep Methods Department of Mathematics Equilibrium States for Multistep Methods
When the stepsize in non-stii ODE codes is restricted by stability, an uneven pattern of stepsizes with many step rejections is frequently observed. Results analysing this behaviour have been obtained for Runge-Kutta methods, leading to several papers attempting to improve stepsize control. It is shown here that a similar analysis can be carried out for mul-tistep methods. The explicit Adams 2-...
متن کاملConstruction of Variable-Stepsize Multistep Formulas
A systematic way of extending a general fixed-stepsize multistep formula to a minimum storage variable-stepsize formula has been discovered that encompasses fixed-coefficient (interpolatory), variable-coefficient (variable step), and fixed leading coefficient as special cases. In particular, it is shown that the " interpolatory" stepsize changing technique of Nordsieck leads to a truly variable...
متن کاملThe Second-order Backward Differentiation Formula Is Unconditionally Zero-stable *
Previous studies of the stability of the second-order backward differentiation formula have concluded that stability is possible only if restrictions are placed on the stepsize ratios, for example, limiting the ratio to some value less than 1 + fi. However, actual implementations of the BDFs differ from the usual theoretical models of such methods; in particular, practical codes use scaled deri...
