Abstract

In this paper, the block backward differentiation α formulas (BBDF-α) is derived for solving first order stiff ordinary differential equations with oscillating solutions. The consistency and zero stability conditions are investigated to prove the convergence of the method. The stability region in the entire negative half plane shows that the derived method is A-stable for certain values of α. The implementation of the method using Newton iteration is also discussed. Several numerical experiments are conducted to demonstrate the performance of the method in terms of accuracy and computational time.
