Two-point block backward differentiation formula for solving higher order ordinary differential equations

This thesis focuses on solving higher order Ordinary Differential Equations (ODEs) directly using the Block Backward Differentiation Formula (BBDF) method. The BBDF method approximates the solution at two points concurrently. Implementation of this method is done by using equidistant stepsize on the...
