Description

The Runge-Kutta Cash-Karp method is one of the standard methods for solving ordinary differential equations, see en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cash-Karp_methods. The method is explicit and fulfills the Error Stepper concept. Step size control is provided but continuous output is not available for this method.

This class derives from explicit_error_stepper_base and inherits its interface via CRTP (current recurring template pattern). Furthermore, it derivs from explicit_error_generic_rk which is a generic Runge-Kutta algorithm with error estimation. For more details see explicit_error_stepper_base and explicit_error_generic_rk.

Template Parameters

  1. typename State

    The state type.

  2. typename Value = double

    The value type.

  3. typename Deriv = State

    The type representing the time derivative of the state.

  4. typename Time = Value

    The time representing the independent variable - the time.

  5. typename Algebra = typename algebra_dispatcher< State >::algebra_type

    The algebra type.

  6. typename Operations = typename operations_dispatcher< State >::operations_type

    The operations type.

  7. typename Resizer = initially_resizer

    The resizer policy type.

runge_kutta_cash_karp54 public construct/copy/destruct

  1. runge_kutta_cash_karp54(const algebra_type & algebra = algebra_type());
    Constructs the runge_kutta_cash_karp54 class. This constructor can be used as a default constructor if the algebra has a default constructor.

    Parameters:

    algebra

    A copy of algebra is made and stored inside explicit_stepper_base.

runge_kutta_cash_karp54 public member functions

  1. template<typename System, typename StateIn, typename DerivIn, 
             typename StateOut, typename Err> 
      void do_step_impl(System system, const StateIn & in, const DerivIn & dxdt, 
                        time_type t, StateOut & out, time_type dt, Err & xerr);
  2. template<typename System, typename StateIn, typename DerivIn, 
             typename StateOut> 
      void do_step_impl(System system, const StateIn & in, const DerivIn & dxdt, 
                        time_type t, StateOut & out, time_type dt);
  3. template<typename StateIn> void adjust_size(const StateIn & x);
    Adjust the size of all temporaries in the stepper manually.

    Parameters:

    x

    A state from which the size of the temporaries to be resized is deduced.
