Improved Runge-Kutta Method for Oscillatory Problem Solution Using Trigonometric Fitting Approach

Abstract

This paper provides a four-stage Trigonometrically Fitted Improved Runge-Kutta (TFIRK4) method of four orders to solve oscillatory problems, which contains an oscillatory character in the solutions. Compared to the traditional Runge-Kutta method, the Improved Runge-Kutta (IRK) method is a natural two-step method requiring fewer steps. The suggested method extends the fourth-order Improved Runge-Kutta (IRK4) method with trigonometric calculations. This approach is intended to integrate problems with particular initial value problems (IVPs) using the set functions and for trigonometrically fitted. To improve the method's accuracy, the problem primary frequency is used. The novel method is more accurate than the conventional Runge-Kutta method and IRK4. Several test problems for the system of first-order ordinary differential equations carry out numerically to demonstrate the effectiveness of this approach. The computational studies show that the TFIRK4 approach is more efficient than the existing Runge-Kutta methods.
