ARKODE: A Flexible IVP Solver Infrastructure for One-step Methods

We describe the ARKODE library of one-step time integration methods for ordinary differential equation (ODE) initial-value problems (IVPs). In addition to providing standard explicit and diagonally implicit Runge–Kutta methods, ARKODE supports one-step methods designed to treat additive splittings of the IVP, including implicit-explicit (ImEx) additive Runge–Kutta methods and multirate infinitesimal (MRI) methods. We present the role of ARKODE within the SUNDIALS suite of time integration and nonlinear solver libraries, the core ARKODE infrastructure for utilities common to large classes of one-step methods, as well as its use of “time stepper” modules enabling easy incorporation of novel algorithms into the library. Numerical results show example problems of increasing complexity, highlighting the algorithmic flexibility afforded through this infrastructure, and include a larger multiphysics application leveraging multiple algorithmic features from ARKODE and SUNDIALS.

Multirate Exponential Rosenbrock Methods

In this paper we propose a novel class of methods for high-order accurate integration of multirate systems of ordinary differential equation initial-value problems. The proposed methods construct multirate schemes by approximating the action of matrix φ functions within explicit exponential Rosenbrock (ExpRB) methods, thereby called multirate ExpRB (MERB) methods. They consist of the solution to a sequence of modified “fast” initial-value problems, which may themselves be approximated through subcycling any desired initial-value problem solver. In addition to proving how to construct MERB methods from certain classes of ExpRB methods, we provide rigorous convergence analysis of these methods and derive efficient MERB schemes of orders 2 through 6 (the highest-order infinitesimal multirate methods to date). Lastly, we then present numerical simulations to confirm these theoretical convergence rates and to compare the efficiency of MERB methods against other recently introduced high-order multirate methods.
