Abstract

We describe the construction of diagonally implicit multistage integration methods (DIMSIMs) of type 1 and 2 with the same stability properties as explicit Runge-Kutta methods or implicit SDIRK methods, respectively, of appropriate order. Such methods are intended for the numerical integration of nonstiff or stiff differential systems in a sequential computing environment. Examples of pqrst DIMSIMs are given with p, q, r,s ≤ 4 and t = 1 or 2, where p is the order, q is the stage order, r is the number of external stages, s is the number of internal stages, and t is the type of the method. Coefficients of the methods of order 4 were obtained numerically with the aid of continuation programs from PITCON, ALCON, and HOMPACK.
