3 Description
D02NEF is a general purpose routine for integrating the initial value problem for a stiff system of implicit ordinary differential equations with coupled algebraic equations written in the form
D02NEF uses the DASSL implementation of the Backward Differentiation Formulae (BDF) of orders one to five to solve a system of the above form for
(
Y) and
(
YDOT). Values for
Y and
YDOT at the initial time must be given as input. These values must be consistent, (i.e., if
T,
Y,
YDOT are the given initial values, they must satisfy
). The routine solves the system from
to
.
An outline of a typical calling program for D02NEF is given below. It calls the DASSL implementation of the BDF integrator setup routine
D02MWF and the banded matrix setup routine
D02NPF (if required), and, if the integration needs to proceed, calls
D02MCF before continuing the integration.

On entry:
IFAIL must be set to
,
. If you are unfamiliar with this parameter you should refer to
Section 3.3 in the Essential Introduction for details.
For environments where it might be inappropriate to halt program execution when an error is detected, the value
is recommended. If the output of error messages is undesirable, then the value
is recommended. Otherwise, because for this routine the values of the output parameters may be useful even if
on exit, the recommended value is
.
When the value is used it is essential to test the value of IFAIL on exit.
On exit:
unless the routine detects an error or a warning has been flagged (see
Section 6).

7 Accuracy
The accuracy of the numerical solution may be controlled by a careful choice of the parameters
RTOL and
ATOL. You are advised to use scalar error control unless the components of the solution are expected to be poorly scaled. For the type of decaying solution typical of many stiff problems, relative error control with a small absolute error threshold will be most appropriate (that is, you are advised to choose
with
small but positive).
8 Parallelism and Performance
D02NEF is threaded by NAG for parallel execution in multithreaded implementations of the NAG Library.
D02NEF makes calls to BLAS and/or LAPACK routines, which may be threaded within the vendor library used by this implementation. Consult the documentation for the vendor library for further information.
Please consult the
X06 Chapter Introduction for information on how to control and interrogate the OpenMP environment used within this routine. Please also consult the
Users' Note for your implementation for any additional implementation-specific information.
The cost of computing a solution depends critically on the size of the differential system and to a lesser extent on the degree of stiffness of the problem. For banded systems the cost is proportional to , while for full systems the cost is proportional to
. Note however that for moderately sized problems which are only mildly nonlinear the cost may be dominated by factors proportional to and respectively.
