Abstract

Generalized A(α)-stable Runge-Kutta methods of order four with stepsize control are studied. The equations of condition for this class of semiimplicit methods are solved taking the truncation error into consideration. For application an A-stable and an A(89.3°)-stable method with small truncation error are proposed and test results for 25 stiff initial value problems for different tolerances are discussed.
