An exponentially fitted finite difference scheme for a class of singularly perturbed delay differential equations with large delays

AbstractThis paper deals with singularly perturbed boundary value problem for a linear second order delay differential equation. It is known that the classical numerical methods are not satisfactory when applied to solve singularly perturbed problems in delay differential equations. In this paper we present an exponentially fitted finite difference scheme to overcome the drawbacks of the corresponding classical counter parts. The stability of the scheme is investigated. The proposed scheme is analyzed for convergence. Several linear singularly perturbed delay differential equations have been solved and the numerical results are presented to support the theory

A numerical scheme for singularly perturbed delay differential equations of convection-diffusion type on an adaptive grid

In this paper, an adaptive mesh strategy is presented for solving singularly perturbed delay differential equation of convection-diffusion type using second order central finite difference scheme. Layer adaptive meshes are generated via an entropy production operator. The details of the location and width of the layer is not required in the proposed method unlike the popular layer adaptive meshes mainly by Bakhvalov and Shishkin. An extensive amount of computational work has been carried out to demonstrate the applicability of the proposed method

An exponentially fitted tridiagonal finite difference method for singularly perturbed differential-difference equations with small shift

This paper deals with the singularly perturbed boundary value problem for a linear second order differential-difference equation of convection-diffusion type. In the numerical treatment of such type of problems, first we use Taylor’s approximation to tackle the term containing the small shift. A fitting parameter has been introduced in a tridiagonal finite difference method and is obtained from the theory of singular perturbations. Thomas algorithm is used to solve the tridiagonal system. The method is analysed for convergence. Several numerical examples are solved to demonstrate the applicability of the method. Graphs are plotted for the solutions of these problems to illustrate the effect of small shift on the boundary layer solution
