A new selection is made of the most practical of the many explicit Runge-Kutta formulas of order 4 which have been proposed. A new formula is considered, formulas are modified to improve their quality and efficiency in agreement with improved understanding of the issues, and formulas are derived which permit interpolation. It is possible to do a lot better than the pair of Fehlberg currently re...

THEORY AND IMPLEMENTATION OF NUMERICAL METHODS BASED ON RUNGE-KUTTA INTEGRATION FOR SOLVING OPTIMAL CONTROL PROBLEMS

In this paper, numerical spline-based differential quadrature is presented for solving the boundary and initial value problems, and its application is used to solve the fixed rectangular membrane vibration equation. For the time integration of the problem, the Runge–Kutta and spline-based differential quadrature methods have been applied. The Runge–Kutta method was unstable for solving the prob...

in this paper, the chebyshev spectral collocation method(cscm) for one-dimensional linear hyperbolic telegraph equation is presented. chebyshev spectral collocation method have become very useful in providing highly accurate solutions to partial differential equations. a straightforward implementation of these methods involves the use of spectral differentiation matrices. firstly, we transform ...

We present new symmetric fourth and sixth-order symplectic Partitioned Runge{ Kutta and Runge{Kutta{Nystrr om methods. We studied compositions using several extra stages, optimising the eeciency. An eeective error, E f , is deened and an extensive search is carried out using the extra parameters. The new methods have smaller values of E f than other methods found in the literature. When applied...

In this work we introduce a new approach to Dynamical Monte Carlo methods to simulate markovian processes. We apply this approach to formulate and study an epidemic generalized SIRS model. The results are in excellent agreement with the fourth order Runge-Kutta method in a region of deterministic solution. Introducing local stochastic interactions, the Runge-Kutta method is no longer applicable...

We consider the preservation of weak solution invariants in the time integration of ordinary diier-ential equations (ODEs). Recent research has concentrated on obtaining symplectic discretizations of Hamiltonian systems and schemes that preserve certain rst integrals (i.e. strong invariants). In this article, we examine the connection between constrained systems and ODEs with weak invariants fo...

We will consider the efficient implementation of a fourth order two stage implicit Runge-Kutta method to solve periodic second order initial value problems. To solve the resulting systems, we will use the factorization of the discretized operator. Such proposed factorization involves both complex and real arithmetic. The latter case is considered here. The resulting system will be efficient and...

In this paper the performance of a parallel iterated Runge-Kutta method is compared versus those of the serial fouth order Runge-Kutta and Dormand-Prince methods. It was found that, typically, the runtime for the parallel method is comparable to that of the serial versions, thought it uses considerably more computational resources. A new algorithm is proposed where full parallelization is used ...

We consider a very general class of Runge-Kutta methods for the numerical solution of Volterra integral equations of the second kind, which includes as special cases all the more important methods which have been considered in the literature. The main purpose of this paper is to define and prove the existence of the Natural Continuous Extensions (NCE's) of Runge-Kutta methods, i.e., piecewise p...
