A general one-step hybrid block method with equidistant of order 6 has been successfully developed for the direct solution of second order IVPs in this article. Numerical analysis shows that the developed method is consistent and zero-stable which implies its convergence. The analysis of the new method is examined on two highly and mildly stiff second-order initial value problems to illustrate the efficiency of the method. It is obvious that our method performs better than the existing method within which we compare our result with. Hence, the approach is an adequate one for solving special second order IVPs.

A general one-step three-hybrid (off-step) points block method is proposed for solving fourth-order initial value problems of ordinary differential equations directly. A power series approximate function is employed for deriving this method. The approximate function is interpolated at xn,xn+r,xn+s,xn+t while its fourth and fifth derivatives are collocated at all points xi, i=0,r,s,t,1, in the interval of approximation. Several fourth-order initial value problems of ordinary differential equations are then solved to compare the performance of the proposed method with the derived methods. The analysis of the method reveals that the method is consistent and zero stable concluding that the method is also convergent. The numerical results demonstrate the superiority of the new method over the existing ones in terms of error.

In this paper we present fifth order Runge-Kutta method (RK5) for solving initial value problems of fourth order ordinary differential equations. In this study RK5 method is quite efficient and practically well suited for solving boundary value problems. All mathematical calculation performed by MATLAB software for better accuracy and result. The result obtained, from numerical examples, shows that this method more efficient and accurate. These methods are preferable to some existing methods because of their simplicity, accuracy and less computational cost involved.
