Locally Linearized Runge Kutta method of Dormand and Prince
Abstract
In this paper, the effect that produces the local linearization of the embedded Runge-Kutta formulas of Dormand and Prince for initial value problems is studied. For this, embedded Locally Linearized Runge-Kutta formulas are defined and their performance is analyzed by means of exhaustive numerical simulations. For a variety of well-known physical equations with different dynamics, the simulation results show that the locally linearized formulas exhibit significant higher accuracy than the original ones, which implies a substantial reduction of the number of time steps and, consequently, a sensitive reduction of the overall computation cost of their adaptive implementation.

Comments
In this version, the local truncation errors of the Locally Linearized Runge Kutta formulas are included and the results of new simulations with crude and refined tolerances are added. Tables are now better organized and displayed in more compact way. Additional information about the High Order Local Linearization method was added as well. Research Memo.
