Summary: The article explores the alleviation of spurious oscillations introduced by traditional finite element methods in advection dominated problems through a generalized finite element formulation. This method is demonstrated to effectively capture boundary layer development and provide smooth numerical solutions with improved error levels compared to traditional formulations. Insights into the improvements offered by the generalized finite element method are further illuminated through a consistent decomposition of the variational multiscale method for comparison with classical stabilized methods.

Summary: This article focuses on the study of singular perturbed static convection-diffusion equations with varying coefficients on a metric graph G = (V, E). The emphasis is on the convection dominated situation where a small parameter epsilon > 0 appears in front of the diffusion term. The reduced problem in the limit epsilon -> 0 may exhibit boundary layers at multiple vertices and simple nodes. Various scenarios are analyzed and validated in several test cases, using exemplary graphs and an upwind finite difference method on a piece-wise Shishkin mesh. Error estimates are discussed to demonstrate epsilon-uniform convergence. (c) 2023 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Summary: This article presents a study on 1D parabolic Dirichlet's type differential equations with discontinuous source terms. The time derivative is discretized using the Euler backward method and the streamline-diffusion finite element method is used to solve locally one-dimensional stationary problems on a Shishkin mesh. The proposed method achieves first-order convergence in time and second-order convergence in space. It offers advantages such as more accurate approximations of the solution on the boundary layer region, better efficiency, and robustness in dealing with discontinuous line source terms. Numerical examples demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiency of the method, making it a valuable tool in various fields.

Summary: This paper presents the nonsymmetric interior penalty Galerkin (NIPG) finite element method for a class of one-dimensional convection dominated diffusion problems with discontinuous coefficients. The solution of the considered class of problem exhibits boundary and interior layers. Piecewise uniform Shishkin-type meshes are used for the spatial discretization. The error estimates in the energy norm have been derived for the proposed schemes. Theoretical results are supported by conducting numerical experiments. It is established that the errors are uniform with respect to the perturbation parameter epsilon. The uniformness of the error estimates with the perturbation parameter epsilon has also been established numerically for L-infinity- norm.

Summary: This study considers the Kellogg-Tsan decomposition of the solution to the linear one-dimensional singularly perturbed convection-diffusion problem and improves it by including the solution of the corresponding reduced problem. The upwind scheme on a modified Shishkin-type mesh is used to approximate the unknown component of the decomposition. It is proved that the error is O(epsilon(ln epsilon)N-2(-1)), where epsilon is the perturbation parameter and N is the number of mesh steps, demonstrating high accuracy of the method through numerical examples.

Summary: This paper compares the finite element method (FEM) and the mesh-free deep neural network (DNN) approach for solving coupled nonlinear hyperbolic/wave partial differential equations (PDEs). The mesh-free DNN approach is found to be easily applicable to different problems, but it lacks a definite convergence pattern and energy dissipation property compared to the problem-dependent FEM. Numerical experiments validate these findings by comparing the convergent accuracies and energy performances of both approaches.
