TSEIMEX
Time stepping with Extrapolated IMEX methods. These methods are intended for problems with well-separated time scales, especially when a slow scale is strongly nonlinear such that it
is expensive to solve with a fully implicit method. The user should provide the stiff part of the equation using TSSetIFunction() and the
non-stiff part with TSSetRHSFunction().
Notes
The default is a 3-stage scheme, it can be changed with TSEIMEXSetMaxRows() or -ts_eimex_max_rows
This method currently only works with ODE, for which the stiff part G(t,X,Xdot) has the form Xdot + Ghat(t,X).
The general system is written as
G(t,X,Xdot) = F(t,X)
where G represents the stiff part and F represents the non-stiff part. The user should provide the stiff part
of the equation using TSSetIFunction() and the non-stiff part with TSSetRHSFunction().
This method is designed to be linearly implicit on G and can use an approximate and lagged Jacobian.
Another common form for the system is
y'=f(x)+g(x)
The relationship between F,G and f,g is
G = y'-g(x), F = f(x)
