ADAMS-BASH FORTH PREDICTOR AND CORRECTOR

METHODS
Milne's method is simple and has a good local error,
O(h). However, it is subjected to instability in certain
cases the errors do not tend to zero as h is made
smaller. Because of this instability, another method, a
modification of Adam's method, is more widely used
than Milne's. The Adam's method is a method that
does not have the same instability problem as the
Milne's method, but is efficient. We have stressed that
the advantage of the Adam's method over that of
Milne's is that it is stable rather than unstable like
Milne's method. An analytical proof of the stability of
Adam's method by examining a particular equation is
not entirely satisfying because we cannot prove its
stability for all cases in that way.
Adam’s predictor formula is

Put n = 3
Adam’s corrector formula is

Put n = 3

1. Given dy/dx = x2 (1+ y), y(1) = 1, y (1.1) = 1.233,


y(1.2) = 1.548, y(1.3) = 1.979, evaluate y(1.4) by
Adams-Bashforth method.
Solution :
2. Find y (0.1), y (0.2), y (0.3) from dy / dx = xy + y2,
y (0) = 1 by using Runge-Kutta method and hence
obtain y (0.4) using Adam's method.
Solution :
3. Using Adams-Bashforth method, find y (4.4) given
5xy' + y2 = 2 y (4) = 1, y (4.1) = 1.0049, y (4.2)=1.0097
and y (4.3) = 1.0143.
Solution:
4. Find y (0.1), y (0.2) and y (0.3) using R-K method of
fourth order given dy / dx = (1/2)(1 + x) y2, y(0) = 1.
Continue your calculations to find y (0.4), using Adam's
method.
Solution :
5. Using the above predictor-corrector equations,
evaluate y(1.4), if y satisfies.
dy/dx + y /x = 1/x2 ⇒ dy /dx = (1 / x2 )– (y/x)
= (1 – xy)/x2 and y(1) = 1, y(1.1) = 0.996, y(1.2) = 0.986,
y(1.3) = 0.972.
Solution:
In the usual notation, we have
