  2. Numerical analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numerical_analysis

    Numerical analysis is the study of algorithms that use numerical approximation (as opposed to symbolic manipulations) for the problems of mathematical analysis (as distinguished from discrete mathematics). It is the study of numerical methods that attempt to find approximate solutions of problems rather than the exact ones.

  3. Numerical methods for ordinary differential equations

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numerical_methods_for...

    The same illustration for The midpoint method converges faster than the Euler method, as . Numerical methods for ordinary differential equations are methods used to find numerical approximations to the solutions of ordinary differential equations (ODEs). Their use is also known as "numerical integration", although this term can also refer to ...

  4. Crank–Nicolson method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crank–Nicolson_method

    t. e. In numerical analysis, the Crank–Nicolson method is a finite difference method used for numerically solving the heat equation and similar partial differential equations. [1] It is a second-order method in time. It is implicit in time, can be written as an implicit Runge–Kutta method, and it is numerically stable.

  5. Finite element method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finite_element_method

    The finite element method (FEM) is a popular method for numerically solving differential equations arising in engineering and mathematical modeling. Typical problem areas of interest include the traditional fields of structural analysis, heat transfer, fluid flow, mass transport, and electromagnetic potential.

    Toom–Cook multiplication — generalization of Karatsuba multiplication. Schönhage–Strassen algorithm — based on Fourier transform, asymptotically very fast. Fürer's algorithm — asymptotically slightly faster than Schönhage–Strassen. Division algorithm — for computing quotient and/or remainder of two numbers.

  7. Linear multistep method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_multistep_method

    Linear multistep method. Linear multistep methods are used for the numerical solution of ordinary differential equations. Conceptually, a numerical method starts from an initial point and then takes a short step forward in time to find the next solution point. The process continues with subsequent steps to map out the solution.

  8. Finite difference method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finite_difference_method

    In numerical analysis, finite-difference methods (FDM) are a class of numerical techniques for solving differential equations by approximating derivatives with finite differences. Both the spatial domain and time domain (if applicable) are discretized, or broken into a finite number of intervals, and the values of the solution at the end points ...

  9. Collocation method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collocation_method

    In mathematics, a collocation method is a method for the numerical solution of ordinary differential equations, partial differential equations and integral equations.The idea is to choose a finite-dimensional space of candidate solutions (usually polynomials up to a certain degree) and a number of points in the domain (called collocation points), and to select that solution which satisfies the ...
