Foil 25 Comparison of Explicit and Implicit Methods

From Fox Presentation Fall 1995 CPS615 Basic Simulation Track for Computational Science -- Fall Semester 95/96/97. by Nancy McCracken and Geoffrey C. Fox
1 Adams-Bashforth fourth-order explicit method (4 step)
2 Adams-Moulton fourth order method (3 step) is an implicit Multistep method
3 Note coefficient of implicit method is a factor of 251/19 smaller than explicit method of same order -- this is why extrapolation is not so good!
