Abstract

We design and analyse a new numerical method to solve ODE system based on the structural method. We compute approximations of solutions together with its derivatives up to order KK by solving an entire block corresponding to RR time steps. We build the physical relations that connect the function and derivative approximations at each time step by using the ODE and its derivatives, and develop the structural equations that establish linear relations between the function and its derivative over the whole block of RR times steps. The non-linear system is solved and provide very accurate approximations with nice spectral resolution properties.
