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 <em>α</em>. 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.</p>}, number={2}, journal={Tamkang Journal of Mathematics}, author={Mohd Zawawi, Iskandar Shah}, year={2020}, month={Jun.}, pages={123–136} }
