Parameter-uniform numerical methods for singularly perturbed linear transport problems
share
Pointwise accurate numerical methods are constructed and analysed for three classes of singularly perturbed first order transport problems. The methods involve piecewise-uniform Shishkin meshes and the numerical approximations are shown to be parameter-uniformly convergent in the maximum norm. A transport problem from the modelling of fluid-particle interaction is formulated and used as a test problem for these numerical methods. Numerical results are presented to illustrate the performance of the numerical methods and to confirm the theoretical error bounds established in the paper.
