midpoint_adaptive

midpoint_adaptive, a Fortran90 code which solves one or more ordinary differential equations (ODE) using the (implicit) midpoint method, relying on fsolve() to solve the implicit equation, and using an adaptive timestep. Plots of the solution and timestep history are created using gnuplot().

f90_ode_solver, a Fortran90 code which solves one or more differential equations (ODE) using a method of a particular order, either explicit or implicit. Some methods require a nonlinear equation solver. Some methods used a fixed stepsize, while others adapt the stepsize based on an error estimate.
