We study convergence properties of a numerical method for convection-diffusion problems with characteristic layers on a layer-adapted mesh. The method couples standard Galerkin with an h-version of the nonsymmetric discontinuous Galerkin finite element method with bilinear elements. In an associated

✦ Synopsis
The continuous interior penalty (CIP) method for elliptic convection-diffusion problems with characteristic layers on a Shishkin mesh is analysed. The method penalises jumps of the normal derivative across interior edges. We show that it is of the same order of convergence as the streamline diffusion finite-element method and is superclose in the CIP norm induced by its bilinear form for the difference between the FEM solution and the bilinear nodal interpolant of the exact solution. Furthermore, we study numerically the behaviour of the method for different choices of the stabilisation parameter.

A Galerkin finite element method that uses piecewise bilinears on a simple piecewise equidistant mesh is applied to a linear convection-dominated convection-diffusion problem in two dimensions. The method is shown to be convergent, uniformly in the perturbation parameter, of order N y1 ln N in a glo
In this paper we consider numerical schemes for multidimensional evolutionary convection-diffusion problems, where the approximation properties are uniform in the diffusion parameter. In order to obtain an efficient method, to provide good approximations with independence of the size of the diffusio
