Improving the accuracy of the discrete gradient method in the one-dimensional case

Phys Rev E Stat Nonlin Soft Matter Phys. 2010 Jan;81(1 Pt 2):016704. doi: 10.1103/PhysRevE.81.016704. Epub 2010 Jan 14.

Abstract

We present two numerical schemes of high accuracy for one-dimensional dynamical systems. They are modifications of the discrete gradient method and keep its advantages, including stability and conservation of the energy integral. However, their accuracy is higher by several orders of magnitude.
