The formulation and implementation of the method are presented. In addition, numerical results of test problems are also included to verify the performance of the method compared to existing Arithmetic Mean (AM) and 2-Point Full-Sweep Block Arithmetic Mean (2-FSBLAM) methods. From the numerical results, it is noticeable that the 2-HSBLAM method is superior than AM and 2-FSBLAM methods in terms of computational time. © 2013 AIP Publishing LLC. date: 2013 type: Conference or Workshop Item type: PeerReviewed identifier: Muthuvalu, M.S. and Aruchunan, E. and Sulaiman, J.
