<p>
The Second Order System concept models the algorithmic implementation of
the rhs for steppers requirering the second order derivative, hence the r.h.s.
of the ODE <span class="emphasis"><em>x'' = f(x,x',t)</em></span>. The only requirement for
this concept is that it should be callable with a specific parameter syntax
(see below). A Second Order System is typically implemented as a function
or a functor. Systems fulfilling this concept are required by the Velocity
Verlet method.
