ABSTRACT
In the last couple of chapters, I've discussed a number of methods for numerical integration. I've given you, in considerable detail, formulas for both multistep (Adams-Moulton) and single-step (Runge-Kutta) methods. What I haven't done is fully explain why these formulas are so important and why I'm so interested in them. You also haven't seen many practical applications of them - things you could apply to your own problems. In this final chapter of the book, I hope to make these points clear and to provide you with practical, general-purpose sohware for use in solving problems in dynamic simulation.
