Foil 7 Numerical techniques for solving ODE's

From CPS615-Discussion of Ordinary Differential Equations and Start of Parallel N-Body Algorithm Delivered Lectures of CPS615 Basic Simulation Track for Computational Science -- 10 October 96. by Geoffrey C. Fox *
Secs 195.8
1 ODE's give an equation for the derivative of X with respect to time t
2 They can be classified by the boundary conditions used
3 Initial value problems
  • Give initial value Xo for X and first derivative X'o
  • of X, X', at A
4 Boundary value
  • Give endpoint
  • values X o X1
  • for X
  • at A and B
