while one is treated explicitly and the other implicitly.
For usual applications the implicit term is chosen to be linear while the explicit term can be nonlinear. This combination of the former method is called '''Implicit-Explicit Method''' (short IMEX <ref>U.M. Ascher, S.J. Ruuth, R.J. Spiteri: ''Implicit-Explicit Runge-Kutta Methods
