Analysis of selected explicit time integration schemes. The short forms OX denote the order, RK the Runge-Kutta schemes and AB the Adams-Bashfourth schemes. (a) Stability regions for selected explicit time integration schemes. (b) Maximum stable time increment for different methods i normalized with respect to the largest value in blue. Maximum time increment additionally normalized with respect to the number of rhs-calls (evaluations of right-hand-sides of the governing equations) needed for time integration indicating the numerical efficiency in orange.
