We present a block hybrid functionally fitted Runge–Kutta–Nyström method (BHFNM) which is dependent on the stepsize and a fixed frequency. Since the method is implemented in a block-by-block fashion, the method does not require starting values and predictors inherent to other predictor-corrector methods. Upon deriving our method, stability is illustrated, and it is used to numerically solve the general second-order initial value problems as well as hyperbolic partial differential equations. In doing so, we demonstrate the method’s relative accuracy and efficiency.

Derived herein is a set of partial differential equations governing the propagation of an arbitrary, long-wave disturbance of small, but finite amplitude. The equations reduce to that of Boussinesq (1872) when the assumption is made that the disturbance is propagating in one direction only. The equations are hyperbolic with characteristic curves of constant slope. The initial-value problem can be solved very readily by numerical integration along characteristics. A few examples are included.
