Additive Methods for the Numerical Solution of Ordinary Differential Equations

Matlab : Numerical Solution of Ordinary Differential Equations

Matlab has facilities for the numerical solution of ordinary differential equations (ODEs) of any order. In this document we first consider the solution of a first order ODE. Higher order ODEs can be solved using the same methods, with the higher order equations first having to be reformulated as a system of first order equations. Techniques for solving the first order and second order equation...

Numerical Methods for Ordinary Differential Equations

Numerical solution of ordinary differential equations

Ordinary differential equations are ubiquitous in science and engineering: in geometry and mechanics from the first examples onwards (Newton, Leibniz, Euler, Lagrange), in chemical reaction kinetics, molecular dynamics, electronic circuits, population dynamics, and many more application areas. They also arise, after semidiscretization in space, in the numerical treatment of time-dependent parti...

Parallel Methods for the Numerical Integration of Ordinary Differential Equations

Abstract. In this paper we derive a class of numerical integration formulas of a parallel type for ordinary differential equations. These formulas may be used simultaneously on a set of arithmetic processors to increase the integration speed. Conditions for the convergence of such formulas are formulated. Explicit examples for two and four processor cases are derived. Results of numerical exper...
