Abstract We study the performances of several numerical methods (Paoli-Schatzman, Newmark, Runge-Kutta) in order to compute periodic behavior of a simple one-degree-of-freedom impacting oscillator. Some theoretical results are given and numerical tests are performed. We compare mathematical and numerical results using our simple example exhibiting either finite or infinite number of impacts per period. Comparison of exact and numerical solution provides a practical order for each scheme. We conclude about the use of the different numerical methods.

This paper presents a class of new numerical methods for nonlinear functional-integrodifferential equations, which are derived by an adaptation of Pouzet-Runge-Kutta methods originally introduced for standard Volterra integrodifferential equations. Based on the nonclassical Lipschitz condition, analytical and numerical stability is studied and some novel stability criteria are obtained. Numerical experiments further illustrate the theoretical results and the effectiveness of the methods. In the end, a comparison between the presented methods and the existed related methods is given.

This paper presents an interpolation-based method for multidimensional extrapolation. A series of interpolation formulations are proposed to extrapolate functions normal to the interface between two regions. Theoretical proofs and relevant analysis are also presented. The method developed maintains the characteristics of implicit interface. The interface inside every cell is treated smoothly by assuming that curvature is equal everywhere. The method developed and numerical results are verified by comparing to the results by PDE method and theoretical results. Numerical tests demonstrate that the method developed is first-order accuracy and also more efficient in numerical implementation and more accurate than PDE method.

This paper is concerned with the numerical solution of nonlinear neutral delay integrodifferential equations (NDIDEs). The adaptation of one-leg methods is considered. It is proved that anA-stable one-leg method can preserve the global stability and a stronglyA-stable one-leg method can preserve the asymptotic stability of the analytical solution of nonlinear NDIDEs. Numerical tests are given to confirm the theoretical results.

This paper contains a survey of numerical methods for connecting orbits in discrete dynamical systems. Special emphasis is put on degenerate cases where either the orbit loses transversality or one of its endpoints loses hyperbolicity. Numerical methods that approximate the connecting orbits by finite orbit sequences are described in detail and theoretical results on the error analysis are provided. For most of the degenerate cases we present examples and numerical results that illustrate the applicability of the methods and the validity of the error estimates.

A new efficient Two Derivative Runge-Kutta method (TDRK) of order five is developed for the numerical solution of the special first order ordinary differential equations (ODEs). The new method is derived using the property of First Same As Last (FSAL). We analyzed the stability of our method. The numerical results are presented to illustrate the efficiency of the new method in comparison with some well-known RK methods.

The construction of exponentially fitted two-derivative Runge-Kutta (EFTDRK) methods for the numerical solution of first-order differential equations is investigated. The revised EFTDRK methods proposed, with equation-dependent coefficients, take into consideration the errors produced in the internal stages to the update. The local truncation errors and stability of the new methods are analyzed. The numerical results are reported to show the accuracy of the new methods.

Based on the MLS approximation, a meshless method for the numerical solution of the generalized Burger’s equation is presented in this paper. The nonlinear discrete scheme of the generalized equation is obtained, and is solved with the method of iteration. Compared with numerical methods based on mesh, the meshless method needs only the scattered nodes instead of meshing the domain of the problem. An example is given to demonstrate the accuracy of the proposed method. The numerical results agree well with the exact solutions.

Abstract In this paper, we investigate two problems arise in pollutant transport in rivers, and we give some numerical results to approximate this solutions. We determined the approximate solutions using two numerical methods: 1. B-splines combined with Runge-Kutta methods, 2. BVP4C solver of MATLAB and then we compare the run-times.

This article presents the first-order differential equations, which are a very important branch of mathematics as they have a wide applicability, in mathematics, as in physics, biology and economy. The objective of this study was to analyze the resolution of the equation that defines the cooling Newton's law. Verify its behavior using some applications that can be used in the classroom as an auxiliary instrument to the teacher in addressing these contents bringing answers to the questions of the students and motivating them to build their knowledge. It attempted to its resolution through two numerical methods, Euler method and Runge -Kutta method. Finally, there was a comparison of the approach of the solution given by the numerical solution with the analytical resolution whose solution is accurate.

In this paper, we proposed the numerical solution of Volterra integro-differential equations of the second kind using Improved Runge-Kutta method of order three and four with 2 stages and 4 stages, respectively. The improved Runge-kutta method is considered as two-step numerical method for solving the ordinary differential equation part and the integral operator in Volterra integro-differential equation is approximated using quadrature rule and Lagrange interpolation polynomials. To illustrate the efficiency of proposed methods, the test problems are carried out and the numerical results are compared with existing third and fourth order classical Runge-Kutta method with 3 and 4 stages, respectively. The numerical results showed that the Improved Runge-Kutta method by achieving the higher accuracy performed better results than existing methods.
