Multirate generalized additive Runge Kutta methods

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: This work constructs a new class of multirate schemes based on the recently developed generalized additive Runge-Kutta (GARK) methods (Sandu and Guenther, 2013). Multirate schemes use different step sizes for different components and for different partitions of the right-hand side based on the local activity levels. We show that the new multirate GARK family includes many well-known multirate schemes as special cases. The order conditions theory follows directly from the GARK accuracy theory. Nonlinear stability and monotonicity investigations show that these properties are inherited from the base schemes provided that additional coupling conditions hold.


Consider the problem \(y'=f(y)\), where the right hand side splits into different parts with respect to stiffness, nonlinearity, dynamical behaviour cost and computational cost, for instance. In order to exploit this structure, by employing appropriate time steps for each of the different levels of activity, the authors develop a multirate generalized additive Runke-Kutta scheme (referred to as a multirate GARK scheme). The new scheme includes well-known multirate Runge-Kutta schemes as particular instances and inherits the high level of flexibility of the GARK schemes. The work develops the order conditions for the generalized additive multirate schemes and extends the GARK algebraic stability and monotonicity analysis to the new scheme, by showing that these properties are inherited from the basic schemes in the presence of certain coupling conditions.
