Review text

The numerical solution of Arnold-Beltrami-Childress (ABC) flows is investigated. Symplectic integration schemes for the ABC flows are developed. These schemes are explicit and a comparison with a fourth-order Runge-Kutta method is presented. Numerical tests show that the proposed symplectic schemes are more efficient for the calculation of stable orbits.
