The modified Simpson's rule for line integrals

From MaRDI portal





The modified trapezoidal rule for evaluating the line integral of a vector field over an implicitly defined curve is studied. This rule was given by \textit{H. I. Siyyam} and \textit{M. I. Syam} [J. Comput. Appl. Math. 84, No. 1, 1-14 (1997; Zbl 0885.65017)]; their results were satisfactory and not very accurate. A modified Simpson's rule for evaluating the line integral is developed in this paper. The global discretization error of this rule is \(O(h^4)\). An asymptotic error expansion of this rule is studied. Some numerical results are also given.
