An Analysis of the Robust Convergent Method for a Singularly Perturbed Linear System of Reaction–Diffusion Type Having Nonsmooth Data

In this paper, a coupled system of [Formula: see text] second-order singularly perturbed differential equations of reaction–diffusion type with discontinuous source term subject to Dirichlet boundary conditions is studied, where the diffusive term of each equation is being multiplied by the small perturbation parameters having different magnitudes and coupled through their reactive term. A discontinuity in the source term causes the appearance of interior layers on either side of the point of discontinuity in the continuous solution in addition to the boundary layer at the end points of the domain. Unlike the case of a single equation, the considered system does not obey the maximum principle. To construct a numerical method, a classical finite difference scheme is defined in conjunction with a piecewise-uniform Shishkin mesh and a graded Bakhvalov mesh. Based on Green’s function theory, it has been proved that the proposed numerical scheme leads to an almost second-order parameter-uniform convergence for the Shishkin mesh and second-order parameter-uniform convergence for the Bakhvalov mesh. Numerical experiments are presented to illustrate the theoretical findings.

Comparative Study on Numerical Methods for Singularly Perturbed Advanced-Delay Differential Equations

In this paper, we consider a class of singularly perturbed advanced-delay differential equations of convection-diffusion type. We use finite and hybrid difference schemes to solve the problem on piecewise Shishkin mesh. We have established almost first- and second-order convergence with respect to finite difference and hybrid difference methods. An error estimate is derived with the discrete norm. In the end, numerical examples are given to show the advantages of the proposed results (Mathematics Subject Classification: 65L11, 65L12, and 65L20).

Numerical Solution of Singularly Perturbed Two Parameter Problems using Exponential Splines

In this paper, we have studied a method based on exponential splines for numerical solution of singularly perturbed two parameter boundary value problems. The boundary value problem is solved on a Shishkin mesh by using exponential splines. Numerical results are tabulated for different values of the perturbation parameters. From the numerical results, it is found that the method approximates the exact solution very well.

Spline approximation method for singularly perturbed differential-difference equation on nonuniform grids

In this paper, a second-order singularly perturbed differential-difference equation involving mixed shifts is considered. At first, through Taylor series approximation, the original model is reduced to an equivalent singularly perturbed differential equation. Then, the model is treated by using the hybrid finite difference scheme on different types of layer adapted meshes like Shishkin mesh, Bakhvalov–Shishkin mesh and Vulanović mesh. Here, the hybrid scheme consists of a cubic spline approximation in the fine mesh region and a midpoint upwind scheme in the coarse mesh region. The error analysis is carried out and it is shown that the proposed scheme is of second-order convergence irrespective of the perturbation parameter. To display the efficacy and accuracy of the proposed scheme, some numerical experiments are presented which support the theoretical results.
