FORTRAN 90 - DVERK? - initial condition solver

In summary, the conversation is about someone seeking advice on solving initial condition problems for FORTRAN 90 using a routine similar to DVERK or ODE45 in MATLAB. Suggestions were made to code your own using simple methods such as Eulers or Runge-Kutta, but a reference to RKSUITE was also provided for a more complex and accurate solution.

Hi,

I am new to FORTRAN and am trying to work with a system of ODE's. Does someone know of a routine like DVERK for solving initial condition problems for FORTRAN 90?

In MATLAB I would simply use ODE45. I just need something similar.

Thank you!

Your best bet would be to code your own. Start with a Eulers method, this is very simple though not so precise. A 4th order Runga Kutta routine is also easy to code and is quite accurate. Do a bit of web searching and have a go at it.

Yeah both the Euler and the fixed step size Runge-Kutta are simple implementations. The DVERK and ode45 both use adaptive step-size routines, and it gets much more complicated there.
