One of the well-known schemes for the direct numerical integration of second-order initial-value problems is due to Falkner. This paper focuses on the construction of a family of adapted block Falkner methods which are frequency dependent for the direct numerical solution of second-order initial value problems with oscillatory solutions. The techniques of collocation and interpolation are adopted here to derive the new methods. The study of the properties of the proposed adapted block Falkner methods reveals that they are consistent and zero-stable, and thus, convergent. Furthermore, the stability analysis and the algebraic order conditions of the proposed methods are established. As may be seen from the numerical results, the resulting family is efficient and competitive compared to some recent methods in the literature.
