rk2_implicit


rk2_implicit, a C code which solves one or more ordinary differential equations (ODE) using a Runge-Kutta implicit method of order 2, often known as the implicit midpoint method, with fsolve() for the implicit equation, and using a fixed time step.

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

c_ode, a C 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.
