Weighted Block Runge-Kutta methods for solving stiff ordinary differential equations

Weighted Block Runge-Kutta (WBRK) methods are derived to solve first order stiff ordinary differential equations (ODEs). The proposed methods approximate solutions at two points concurrently in a block at each step. Three sets of weight are chosen and implemented to the WBRK methods. Stability regio...
