Nonlinear optimization techniques in dynamic programming and solution of ordinary nonlinear differential equations by Runge-Kutta method
Performance characteristics of higher order approximations of Runge-Kutta type are analyzed, and performance predictors for time required on machine and for error size are developed. Technique is useful in evaluating system performance, analyzing material characteristics, and designing inertial guidance and nuclear instrumentation and materials.
