A robust numerical method for a singularly perturbed second-order ordinary differential equation having two parameters with a discontinuous source term is presented in this article. Theoretical bounds are derived for the derivatives of the solution and its smooth and singular components. An appropriate piecewise uniform mesh is constructed, and classical upwind finite difference schemes are used on this mesh to obtain the discrete system of equations. Parameter-uniform error bounds for the numerical approximations are established. Numerical results are provided to illustrate the convergence of the numerical approximations.

In this paper, a singularly perturbed reaction-convection-diffusion problem with two parameters is considered. A parameter-uniform error bound for the numerical derivative is derived. The numerical method considered here is a standard finite difference scheme on piecewise-uniform Shishkin mesh, which is fitted to both boundary and initial layers. Numerical results are provided to illustrate the theoretical results.

In this paper, a uniformly convergent numerical scheme is designed for solving singularly perturbed reaction-diffusion problems. The problem is converted to an equivalent weak form and then a Galerkin finite element method is used on a piecewise uniform Shishkin mesh with linear basis functions. The convergence of the developed scheme is proved and it is shown to be almost fourth order uniformly convergent in the maximum norm. To exhibit the applicability of the scheme, model examples are considered and solved for different values of a singular perturbation parameter ε and mesh elements. The proposed scheme approximates the exact solution very well.

In this paper, we describe the application procedure of the adaptive mesh refinement (AMR) for the weighted essentially non-oscillatory schemes (WENO), and observe the effects of the derived algorithm when problems have piecewise smooth solutions containing discontinuities. We find numerically that the dissipation of the WENO scheme can be lessened by the implementation of AMR while the accuracy is maintained. We deduce from the experiments that the AMR-implemented WENO scheme captures shocks more efficiently than the WENO method using uniform grids.

We consider a weakly coupled system of singularly perturbed convection-diffusion equations with discontinuous source term. The diffusion term of each equation is associated with a small positive parameter of different magnitude. Presence of discontinuity and different parameters creates boundary and weak interior layers that overlap and interact. A numerical method is constructed for this problem which involves an appropriate piecewise uniform Shishkin mesh. The numerical approximations are proved to converge to the continuous solutions uniformly with respect to the singular perturbation parameters. Numerical results are presented which illustrates the theoretical results.

In this paper, a class of linear second order singularly perturbed delay differential turning point problems containing a small delay (or negative shift) on the reaction term and when the solution of the problem exhibits twin boundary layers are examined. A hybrid finite difference scheme on an appropriate piecewise-uniform Shishkin mesh is constructed to discretize the problem. We proved that the method is almost second order ε-uniformly convergent in the maximum norm. Numerical experiments are considered to illustrate the theoretical results.

In this paper, two hybrid difference schemes on the Shishkin mesh are constructed for solving a weakly coupled system of two singularly perturbed convection-diffusion second order ordinary differential equations with a small parameter multiplying the highest derivative. We prove that the schemes are almost second order convergence in the supremum norm independent of the diffusion parameter. Error bounds for the numerical solution and its derivative are established. Numerical results are provided to illustrate the theoretical results.
