WANG WENSHUAI 1, LI XIAOFAN2. A New Solution to the Third-Order Non-Gradient Symplectic Integration Algorithm. [J]. 2012, 58(3): 221-228. DOI: 10.14188/j.1671-8836.2012.03.010.
a new solution to the three-stage third-order non-gradient symplectic integration algorithm is given based on the minimum phase error principle and the partitioned Runge-Kutta form.Several other non-gradient methods
such as Ruth’s
McLachlan&Atela’s and Iwatsu’s symplectic integration algorithm of three-stage third-order
are employed to compare the performance with the present algorithm by numerical experiments.The numerical results show that the present algorithm is good at stability
and much superior to the other methods in the features of long-time computing ability.The further numerical experiments is used to compare the algorithm with above non-gradient symplectic methods and some force-gradient symplectic methods
the results also show that the algorithm is effective with high accuracy.These appealing features of the algorithm would make it effective to have the ability of structure-preserving and long-time tracing.
