    REFORMULATION OF TWO STEP IMPLICIT LINEAR MULTI-STEP BLOCK HYBRID METHOD INTO RUNGE KUTTA TYPE METHOD FOR THE SOLUTION OF SECOND ORDER INITIAL VALUE PROBLEM (IVP)
    (2025) ALIYU Abubakar; MUHAMMAD Raihanatu; ABDULHAKEEM Yusuf
    Second-order ordinary differential equations (ODEs) is unavoidable in scientific and engineering fields. This research focuses on the reformulation of two-step implicit linear multistep block hybrid method into a seven-stage Runge-Kutta type method for the solution of second-order initial value problems (IVPs). A two-step, four-off-grid-point implicit block hybrid collocation method for first-order initial value problems was derived. Its order and error constants were determined, which shows that the schemes were of order 8, 8, 8, 8, 8 and 9 with respective error constants of , , , , . The derived block method was reformulated into a seven-stage Runge-Kutta type method (RKTM) for the solution of first-order ordinary differential equations; this reformulation was extended to handle the required second-order ordinary differential equations. The second-order Runge- Kutta-type method derived was implemented on numerical experiments. The method was found to be better than existing methods in the literature.

    Improving Accuracy Through the Three Steps Block Methods For Direct Solution of Second Order Initial Value Problem Using Interpolation and Collocation Approach
    (KASU JOURNAL OF MATHEMATICAL SCIENCES (KJMS), 2020-06) R. Muhammad; I. D. Zakariyau
    This paper presents three-step block method for direct solution of second order initial value problems of ordinary differential equations. The collocation and interpolation approach was adopted to generate a continuous block method using power series as basis function. The properties of the proposed approach such as order, error constant, zero-stability, consistency and convergence were also investigated. The proposed method competes favorably with exact solution and the existing methods.
