- A friend is doing some modeling that reiteratively integrates a set of
- equations. Different integration methods yield different answers
- after a relatively few iterations, that is the model predictions diverge
- rapidly depending on the integrator used.
-
- Is there a general reference that discusses the strengths, weaknesses
- and characteristic errors associated with different methods of
- integrating differential equations?
