We propose an efficient Legendre-Gauss collocation algorithm for second-order nonlinear ordinary differential equations (ODEs). We also design a Legendre-Gauss-type collocation algorithm for time-dependent second-order nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs), which can be implemented in a synchronous parallel fashion. Numerical results indicate the high accuracy and effectiveness of the suggested algorithms.
Keywords: second-order ordinary differential equations, Legendre spectral collocation method, time-dependent second-order partial differential equations..
