The general form of R-K solution
Plasma Application Modeling, POSTECH The general form of R-K solution where Cj is just a weight, and kj is a function of f and the previous ki expressions. Derivation of the third-order R-K method in general formation Taylor expansion for (1) where and are the partial derivatives, and everything is evaluated at The general form of third-order R-K method (2) where k1 is obtained from the explicit Euler method (with ) (3a) the subsequent kj are evaluated at various locations within the interval, tn t tn+1, with corresponding values of , where is some combination of the earlier ki values.

Plasma Application Modeling, POSTECH We are looking for a solution to third order in h. So we only need second order here. Thus, we can take a low order approximation of
