In this paper we analyze the consistency and stability properties of Runge-Kutta discrete adjoints. Discrete adjoints are very popular in optimization and control since they can be constructed automatically by reverse mode automatic differentiation. The consistency analysis uses the concept of elementary differentials and reveals that the discrete Runge-Kutta adjoint method has the same order o...

We study the stability of Runge-Kutta methods for the time integration of semidiscrete systems associated with time dependent PDEs. These semidiscrete systems amount to large systems of ODEs with the possibility that the matrices involved are far from being normal. The stability question of their Runge-Kutta methods, therefore, cannot be addressed by the familiar scalar arguments of eigenvalues...

The RK5GL3 method is a numerical method for solving initial value problems in ordinary differential equations, and is based on a combination of a fifth-order Runge-Kutta method and 3-point Gauss-Legendre quadrature. In this paper we describe an effective local error control algorithm for RK5GL3, which uses local extrapolation with an eighth-order Runge-Kutta method in tandem with RK5GL3, and a ...

An error analysis of Runge-Kutta convolution quadrature is presented for a class of nonsectorial operators whose Laplace transform satisfies, besides the standard assumptions of analyticity in a half-plane Re s > σ0 and a polynomial bound O(s 1) there, the stronger polynomial bound O(s2) in convex sectors of the form | arg s| ≤ π/2 − θ < π/2 for θ > 0. The order of convergence of the Runge-Kutt...

In this paper a new embedded Singly Diagonally Implicit Runge-Kutta Nystrom fourth order in fifth order method for solving special second order initial value problems is derived. A standard set of test problems are tested upon and comparisons on the numerical results are made when the same set of test problems are reduced to first order systems and solved using the existing embedded diagonally ...

‎‎in this article‎, ‎a new method is introduced to give approximate solution to van der pol equation‎. ‎the proposed method is based on the combination of two different methods‎, ‎the spectral adomian decomposition method (sadm) and piecewise method‎, ‎called the piecewise adomian decomposition method (psadm)‎. ‎the numerical results obtained from the proposed method show that this method is an...

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...
