ONE STEP COSINE-TAYLORLIKE METHOD FOR sol vING STIFF EQUATIONS

This paper discusses the derivation of an explicit cosine-taylorlike method for solving stiff ordinary differential equations. the formulation has resulted in the introduction of a new formula for the numerical solution of stiff ordinary differential equations. this new method needs an extra work in order to solve a number of differentiations of the function involved. however, the result produced is better than the results from the explicit classical fourth-order runge-kutta (rk4) and the implicit adam-bashforth-moulton (abm) methods. when compared with the previously derived sine-taylorlike method, the accuracy for both methods is almost equivalent.
