TY - JOUR AU - Salmi, Abdelouahab PY - 2006 TI - Passage to the Differences for the BDF's Methods JF - Journal of Mathematics and Statistics VL - 2 IS - 3 DO - 10.3844/jmssp.2006.427.431 UR - https://thescipub.com/abstract/jmssp.2006.427.431 AB - In this study, we give an improvement to the backward differentiation formula (BDF). We use a formula for the differences that permits us to determine the new coefficients αi^ and γi ^in function of the classical coefficients αi and γi of this method. Our proposed approach decreases the error and the cost of computation. Numerical results for concrete problems are given to support the theory.
