Is there any explicit methods to solve ''stiff'' coupled

A particularly well suited explicit method you can use is Exponential Integration based on Krylov subspace projections The method has succesfully been used to solve reaction diffusion problems cheaply as this method does not have the strict time-step restrictions that other explicit methods show due to the stiffness of the equations
