A variable step implicit block multistep method for solving first-order ODEs

Research output: Contribution to journalArticleAcademicpeer-review

Abstract

A new four-point implicit block multistep method is developed for solving systems of
first-order ordinary differential equations with variable step size. The method computes
the numerical solution at four equally spaced points simultaneously. The stability
of the proposed method is investigated. The Gauss–Seidel approach is used for the
implementation of the proposed method in the PE(CE)
m mode. The method is presented
in a simple form of Adams type and all coefficients are stored in the code in order to avoid
the calculation of divided difference and integration coefficients. Numerical examples are
given to illustrate the efficiency of the proposed method
