A new explicit fourth-order six-stage Runge-Kutta scheme with low dispersion and low dissipation properties is developed. This new Runge-Kutta scheme is shown to be more efficient in terms of dispersion and dissipation properties than existing algorithms such as Runge-Kutta temporal schemes developed by Hu et al. (1996), Mead and Renaut (1999), Tselios and Simos (2005). We perform a spectral an...

In this paper, a hybrid technique of differential quadrature method and Runge-Kutta fourth order method is employed to analyze reaction-diffusion problems. The obtained results are compared with the available analytical ones. Further, a parametric study is introduced to investigate the influence of reaction and diffusion characteristics on behavior of the obtained results. Index Term-Reaction-d...

To calculate the trajectory of a rocket by use of a digital computer, the equations of the motion of the rocket should be solved step-by-step with respect to short intervals of time. Hence, the problem is essentially to solve the differential equations and thus there is no particular difficulty in the procedure. In a previous paper, the fundamental programming for the Runge-Kutta integration me...
