Abstract
In recent years, the derivation of Runge-Kutta methods with higher derivatives has been on the increase. In this paper, we present a new class of three stage Runge-Kutta method with first and second derivatives. The consistency and stabil ity of the method is analyzed. Numerical examples with excellent results are shown to verify the accuracy of the pro posed method compared with some existing methods.
