The error generated by the classical upwind finite difference method on a uniform mesh, when applied to a class of singularly perturbed model ordinary differential equations with a singularly perturbed Neumann boundary condition, tends to infinity as the singular perturbation parameter tends to zero. Note that the exact solution is uniformly bounded with respect to the perturbation parameter. F...

Poisson-Nernst-Planck (PNP) systems are considered in the case of vanishing permanent charge. A detailed case study, based on natural categories described by system boundary conditions and flux, is carried out via simulation and singular perturbation analysis. Our results confirm the rich structure inherent in these systems. A natural quantity, the quotient of the Debye and characteristic lengt...

This lecture is a survey of the theory of stability and error bounds for numerical methods for stii initial value problems. We begin with problems in singular perturbation form, where the distinction between \fast" and \slow" variables is clearest. Next we explain Kreiss's characterization of stii problems that includes singular perturbation problems as a special case. The requirement of unifor...

Abstract. In this article we aim to study finite volume approximations which approximate the solutions of convection-dominated problems possessing the so-called interior transition layers. The stiffness of such problems is due to a small parameter multiplied to the highest order derivative which introduces various transition layers at the boundaries and at the interior points where certain comp...

Two new concepts in a certain class of Strategic Management (SM) methodologies and e-service applications are introduced, namely the adaptive algorithmic concept and the singular perturbation (sp) principle. A synoptic description of these principles is given and their usage in certain SM application problems and selected cases is presented. It is shown that the proposed algorithmic approach gr...

In this paper, we propose an iterative method based on the equation decomposition technique[11] for the numerical solution of a singular perturbation problem of fourth-order elliptic equation. At each step of the given method, we only need to solve a boundary value problem of second-order elliptic equation and a second-order singular perturbation problem. We prove that our approximate solution ...
