Abstract
An eighth-order P-stable two-step method for the numerical integration of second-order periodic initial-value problems is developed in this paper. This method has seven stages per iteration and an interval of p eriodicity equal to (0, infinity); i.e., it is P-stable. Numerical and theoretical results obtained for several well-known problems show the efficiency of the new method. (C) 1997 Academic Press
