Hence, the methods contain the current internal stage k i as well as the previous internal stages k i. The aim here is to use the available internal stage in the previous step so that the resulting methods are more accurate. In the first part of the thesis, the order conditions of the methods are obtained using Taylor series expansion. Based on the order conditions, IRK methods of different orders and stages for solving first order ODEs are constructed. The convergence of the method is proven and the stability regions of the methods are also presented. Numerical results based on the new methods are compared with the existing methods in the literature showed that they are computationally more efficient. Next, the order conditions of the methods for solving some special second order ODEs are obtained using Taylor series expansion. Based on the order conditions as well as work done by Dormand (1996), Improved Runge Kutta Nystrom (IRKN) methods of different orders and stages for solving the special second order ODEs y00 = f(x; y) are constructed.

Numerical results based on the new methods are compared with the existing methods in the literature and it is showed that the new IRKN methods are computationally more efficient.
