trapezoidal


trapezoidal, a C code which solves one or more ordinary differential equations (ODE) using the (implicit) trapezoidal method, with a version of fsolve() handling the associated nonlinear equation, and using a fixed time step.

Each step requires the solution of an implicit nonlinear equation. A corresponding function has been devised, called fsolve_tr(), which carries out the iterative solution process.
