Explicit Eighth Order Hybrid Numerov Type Methods With Nine Stages

摘要

We present a new explicit hybrid two step method for the solution of second order initial value problem. It costs only nine function evaluations per step and attains eighth algebraic order so it is the cheapest in the literature. Its coefficients are chosen to reduce amplification and phase errors. Thus the method is well suited for facing problems with oscillatory solutions. Numerical tests justify our effort.
