In this paper, an interpolation method for solving linear diierential equations was developed using multiquadric scheme. Unlike most iterative formula , this method provides a global interpolation formulae for the solution. Numerical examples show that this method ooers a higher degree of accuracy than Runge-Kutta formula and the iterative multistep methods developed by Hyman (1978).

We now begin the definition and construction of Runge-Kutta methods. These one–step methods are essentially always stable, but designing Runge– Kutta methods which are consistent to high order can be difficult. This theory is presented in Sec. We have already seen several examples of Runge–Kutta methods: explicit and implicit Euler, the implicit midpoint rule, the explicit midpoint rule with Eu...

Fatode is a fortran library for the integration of ordinary differential equations with direct and adjoint sensitivity analysis capabilities. The paper describes the capabilities, implementation, code organization, and usage of this package. Fatode implements four families of methods – explicit Runge-Kutta for nonstiff problems and fully implicit Runge-Kutta, singly diagonally implicit Runge-Ku...

Strong stability preserving (SSP) time discretizations were developed for use with the spatial discretization of partial differential equations that are strongly stable under forward Euler time integration. SSP methods preserve convex boundedness and contractivity properties satisfied by forward Euler, under a modified time-step restriction. We turn to implicit Runge–Kutta methods to alleviate ...

Implicit integration schemes for ODEs, such as Runge-Kutta and Runge-Kutta-Nyström methods, are widely used in mathematics and engineering to numerically solve ordinary differential equations. Every integration method requires one to choose a step-size, h, for the integration. If h is too large or too small the efficiency of an implicit scheme is relatively low. As every implicit integration sc...

A modified Boris-like integration, in which the spatial coordinate is the independent variable, is derived. This spatial-Boris integration method is useful for beam simulations, in which the independent variable is often the distance along the beam. The new integration method is second order accurate, requires only one force calculation per particle per step, and preserves conserved quantities ...

Three new Runge–Kutta methods are presented for numerical integration of systems of linear inhomogeneous ordinary differential equations (ODEs) with constant coefficients. Such ODEs arise in the numerical solution of partial differential equations governing linear wave phenomena. The restriction to linear ODEs with constant coefficients reduces the number of conditions which the coefficients of...

Much attention has been paid in the literature to total-variation-diminishing (TVD) numerical processes in the solution of nonlinear hyperbolic differential equations. For special Runge– Kutta methods, conditions on the stepsize were derived that are sufficient for the TVD property; see, e.g., Shu and Osher [J. Comput. Phys., 77 (1988), pp. 439–471] and Gottlieb and Shu [Math. Comp., 67 (1998),...

The main purpose of this paper is to review the work on Runge-Kutta methods at the University of Toronto during the period 1963 to the present (1996). To provide some background, brief mention is also made of related work on the numerical solution of ordinary diierential equations, but, with just a few exceptions, speciic references are given only if the referenced material has a direct bearing...
