Numerical Methods based on Non-Polynomial Splines for Solving Singularly Perturbed Parabolic Partial Differential Equations with Small Shifts
摘要
This paper presents numerical methods based on non-polynomial spline functions for solving singularly perturbed parabolic partial differential equations (SPPPDEs) with small shift terms. These equations frequently arise in applications such as neural signal transmission and tumor growth modeling, where delay effects and sharp gradients pose significant computational challenges. In the numerical schemes proposed in this paper, Taylor series expansion is used for handling the shift terms, backward Euler method is used for discretizing the time domain, and a generalized Shishkin mesh for spatial discretization. This combination ensures accurate resolution of boundary and interior layers. Representative numerical experiments demonstrate the methods’ second-order convergence in both time and space, with uniform accuracy across a range of perturbation parameters (
