The SDFEM on Shishkin meshes for linear convection-diffusion problems (Q5927646)

The authors consider a modified streamline diffusion finite element method (SDFEM) in order to resolve the boundary layer in some 2D singularly perturbed linear elliptic problems. They use piecewise linear functions on highly nonuniform Shishkin meshes. Moreover, they prove convergence inside the layers, uniformly with respect to the perturbation parameter. Some numerical experiments confirm the theoretical estimations.
