"Numerical study of third-order ordinary differential equations using a new class of two derivative Runge-Kutta type methods", Alexandria Engineering Journal, Vol. 59, No. 4, pp. 2449-2467.1110-01682090-2670https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12416/4405This study introduces new special two-derivative Runge-Kutta type (STDRKT) methods involving the fourth derivative of the solution for solving third-order ordinary differential equa-tions. In this regards, rooted tree theory and the corresponding B-series theory is proposed to derive order conditions for STDRKT methods. Besides, explicit two-stages fifth order and three-stages sixth order STDRKT methods are derived and stability,consistency and convergence of STDRKT methods are analysed in details. Accuracy and effectiveness of the proposed techniques are vali-dated by a number of various test problems and compared to existing methods in the literature. (C) 2020 The Authors.
