We propose and analyse a new finite element method for convection diffusion problems based on the combination of a mixed method for the elliptic and a discontinuous Galerkin method for the hyperbolic part of the problem. The two methods are made compatible via hybridization and the combination of both is appropriate for the solution of intermediate convection-diffusion problems. By construction...

Convection-diffusion equations are widely used for modeling and simulations of various complex phenomena in science and engineering (Hundsdorfer & Verwer, 2003; Morton, 1996). Since for most application problems it is impossible to solve convection-diffusion equations analytically, efficient numerical algorithms are becoming increasingly important to numerical simulations involving convection-d...

A new modified diffusi on coefficient (MDC) technique for solv ing conve ction diffusion equation is proposed. The Galerkin finite-element discretization process is applied on the modified equation rather than the original one. For a class of one-dimensional convec-tion–diffusion equations, we derive the modi fied diffusion coefficient analytically as a function of the equation coefficients and...
