A nonstandard fitted operator finite difference method for two-parameter singularly perturbed time-delay parabolic problems

In this article, a class of singularly perturbed time-delay two-parameter second-order parabolic problems are considered. The presence of the two small parameters attached to the derivatives causes the solution of the given problem to exhibit boundary layer(s). We have developed a uniformly convergent nonstandard fitted operator finite difference method (NSFOFDM) to solve the considered problems. The Crank-Nicolson scheme with a uniform mesh is used for the discretization of the time derivative, while for the spatial discretization, we have applied a fitted operator finite difference method following the nonstandard methodology of Mickens. Moreover, the solution bounds of the governing equation are shown by asymptotic analysis. The convergence of the proposed numerical scheme is investigated using truncation error and the barrier function approach. The study shows that our proposed scheme is uniformly convergent independent of the perturbation parameters, quadratically in time, and linearly in space. Numerical experiments are carried out, and the results are presented in tables and graphically

Solving singularly perturbed fredholm integro-differential equation using exact finite difference method

Abstract Objectives In this paper, a numerical scheme is designed for solving singularly perturbed Fredholm integro-differential equation. The scheme is constructed via the exact (non-standard) finite difference method to approximate the differential part and the composite Simpson’s 1/3 rule for the integral part of the equation. Result The stability and uniform convergence analysis are demonstrated using solution bound and the truncation error bound. For three model examples, the maximum absolute error and the rate of convergence for different values of the perturbation parameter and mesh size are tabulated. The computational result shows, the proposed method is second-order uniformly convergent which is in a right agreement with the theoretical result

A tension spline fitted numerical scheme for singularly perturbed reaction-diffusion problem with negative shift

Abstract Objective The paper is focused on developing and analyzing a uniformly convergent numerical scheme for a singularly perturbed reaction-diffusion problem with a negative shift. The solution of such problem exhibits strong boundary layers at the two ends of the domain due to the influence of the perturbation parameter, and the term with negative shift causes interior layer. The rapidly changing behavior of the solution in the layers brings significant difficulties in solving the problem analytically. We have treated the problem by proposing a numerical scheme using the implicit Euler method in the temporal direction and a fitted tension spline method in the spatial direction with uniform meshes. Result Stability and uniform error estimates are investigated for the developed numerical scheme. The theoretical finding is demonstrated by numerical examples. It is obtained that the developed numerical scheme is uniformly convergent of order one in time and order two in space
