AbstractIn this paper, a bilinear Streamline-Diffusion finite element method on Bakhvalov-Shishkin mesh for singularly perturbed convection – diffusion problem is analyzed. The method is shown to be convergent uniformly in the perturbation parameter ∈ provided only that ∈ ≤ N–1. An convergent rate in a discrete streamline-diffusion norm is established under certain regularity assumptions. Finally, through numerical experiments, we verified the theoretical results.

AbstractA singularly perturbed convection-diffusion problem with two small parameters is considered. The problem is solved using the streamline-diffusion finite element method on a Shishkin mesh. We prove that the method is convergent independently of the perturbation parameters. Numerical experiments support these theoretical results.

The Streamline Diffusion Finite Element Method (SDFEM) for a two-dimensional convection–diffusion problem is analyzed in the context of the hp-version of the Finite Element Method (FEM). It is proved that the appropriate choice of the SDFEM parameters leads to stable methods on the class of "boundary layer meshes", which may contain anisotropic needle elements of arbitrarily high aspect ratio. Consistency results show that the use of such meshes can resolve layer components present in the solutions at robust exponential rates of convergence. We confirm these theoretical results in a series of numerical examples.
