CVODE, A Stiff/Nonstiff ODE Solver in C

Cohen, Scott D., Hindmarsh, Alan C., Dubois, Paul F.·1996·Computers in Physics

Abstract

CVODE is a package written in C for solving initial value problems for ordinary differential equations. It provides the capabilities of two older Fortran packages, VODE and VODPK. CVODE solves both stiff and nonstiff systems, using variable-coefficient Adams and BDF methods. In the stiff case, options for treating the Jacobian of the system include dense and band matrix solvers, and a preconditioned Krylov (iterative) solver. In the highly modular organization of CVODE, the core integrator module is independent of the linear system solvers, and all operations on N-vectors are isolated in a module of vector kernels. A set of parallel extenstions of CVODE, called PVODE, is being developed. CVODE is available from Netlib, and comes with an extensive user guide.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
