Introduction
Radau5 codes are based on runge kutta implicit methods. The present native integrators LSODE and IDA are based on backward difference formula(BDF) where as newly added DOPRI5 and RADAU5 are based on single step methods of runge kutta are simply called march forward methods as they don't depend on previous values of y. RADAU5 codes are capable of integrating stiff ordinary differential equations and differential algebraic equations and there general accuracy of order 5. For further reading please refer Solving ordinary differential equations part 2 by E.Hairer and G.Wanner where solving procedure as well code are discussed.
work done
Primary wrapper for integrator is finished and is available in trunk version.
Integrator performance against van der pol problem (stiff ode) has been satisfactorily tested.
Further work
More rigorous testing required to be performed.
Present wrapper supports solving ODE's. Although DAE's can also be solved but approach doesn't make use of native ability of RADAU5 and order of accuracy would be smaller. Extending wrapper support to make use RADAU5's DAE solving ability is in proposed further work.
Codes
