Runge-Kutta RK

For the mathematics of this, consider the discrete equation resulting from the Euler method, as in (4.8). Note that the new point, y +i, is formed from the old point y by the addition of a term, here Stf(y ). With RK, these terms are given the 

This formula has a global error of 0(Sfi) and will here be called RK2. We can do even better, generating more A s and getting higher orders. All these RK formulae, including RK2, have variants that have the same error orders. For example, RK2 can 

only some of all the variants are given. One variant of third-order RK uses as defined above (4.11), then (4.15) for k2, and finally a third, 

Numerical professionals, when using the term Runge-Kutta , usually mean fourth-order RK, and the classical scheme, here RK4, is ki as above, then k2 as in (4.15), 

These formulae can all be applied to pde in a simple manner, easy to program, but have certain drawbacks, as described in a later chapter.

In this chapter we will consider only ordinary differential equations, that is, equations involving only derivatives of a single independent variable. As well, we will discuss only initial-value problems — differential equations in which information about the system is known at f = 0. Two approaches are common Euler s method and the Runge-Kutta (RK) methods. 

A more accurate technique used for numerical integration is the classical fourth-order Runge-Kutta (RK) method. In this...

In ref. 167 the preservation of some structure properties of the flow of differential systems by numerical exponentially fitted Runge-Kutta (EFRK) methods is investigated. The sufficient conditions on symplecticity of EFRK methods are presented. A family of symplectic EFRK two-stage methods with order four has been produced. This new method includes the symplectic EFRK method proposed by Van de Vyver and a collocation method at variable nodes that can be considered as the natural collocation extension of the classical RK Gauss method. 

Let us emphasize that, while a typical RK method is not symplectic, some implicit Runge-Kutta methods are symplectic. The precise condition that must be...

RK.m-The Runge-Kutta methods This function is capable of solving die set of differential equations by a second-, third-, fourth-, or fifth-order Runge-Kutta method. The formulas that appeared in Table 5.2 are used for calculating a Runge-Kutta solution of the differential equations. 

Adams.m-The Adams method This function solves the set of differential equations using Eq. (5.95). The required starting points are evaluated by the third-order Runge-Kutta (using the function RK.m) which has the same order of truncation error as the Adams method.
