A parameter-uniform hybrid scheme designed for multi-point boundary value problems that are perturbed
摘要
The numerical solution of a class of second-order singularly perturbed three-point boundary value problems (BVPs) in 1D is achieved using a uniformly convergent, stable, and efficient difference method on a piecewise-uniform mesh. The presence of a boundary layer(s) on one (or both) of the interval’s endpoints is caused by the presence of the tiny parameter in the highest order derivative. As the perturbation parameter approaches 0, traditional numerical techniques on the uniform mesh become insufficient, resulting in poor accuracy and large blows without the use of an excessive number of points. Specially customised techniques, such as fitted operator methods or methods linked to adapted or fitted meshes that solve essential characteristics such as boundary and/or inner layers, are necessary to overcome this drawback. We developed a fitted-mesh technique in this paper that works for all perturbation parameter values. The monotone hybrid technique, which includes midway upwinding in the outer area and centre differencing in the layer region on a fitted-mesh condensing in the border layer region, is the basis for our difference scheme.
