Numerical methods are considered for singularly perturbed quasilinear problems having interior-shock solutions. It is shown that the direct discretization on a layer-adapted mesh is ineffective for these problems. A special method is proposed for the case when the solution is monotonic: the problem is transformed by interchanging the dependent and independent variables, and it is then discretized on a uniform mesh. The method is analyzed both theoretically and numerically. It is shown that it can be effective, but that it is not entirely without problems. An approach for improving the method is suggested.

The Bakhvalov mesh: a complete finite-difference analysis of two-dimensional singularly perturbed convection-diffusion problems

Thai Anh Nhan, Relja Vulanovic

Summary: In this study, a linear two-dimensional singularly perturbed convection-diffusion boundary-value problem is discretized using the original Bakhvalov mesh. The analysis of the error in the numerical solution shows first-order pointwise accuracy, which is consistent across perturbation parameters. This is the first comprehensive analysis for two-dimensional convection-diffusion problems discretized on the Bakhvalov mesh, and numerical experiments confirm the theoretical findings.

An improved Kellogg-Tsan solution decomposition in numerical methods for singularly perturbed convection-diffusion problems

Relja Vulanovic, Thai Anh Nhan

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.

A mathematical model of enzymatic non-competitive inhibition by product and its applications

Vinh Quang Mai, Thai Anh Nhan, Zakia Hammouch

Summary: Enzymes are biological catalysts that accelerate biochemical reactions in living organisms, and cells use regulatory mechanisms like enzymatic inhibition to control metabolite concentrations. A novel mathematical model describing enzymatic non-competitive inhibition by product was developed, providing insights into reaction velocity and Michaelis-Menten constant. The model's asymptotic solutions were found to align well with numerical solutions, and a global sensitivity analysis identified key mechanisms affecting enzyme activities.

Analysis of a second-order hybrid scheme on Bakhvalov-type meshes: The truncation-error and barrier-function approach

Thai Anh Nhan, Relja Vulanovic

Summary: This paper discusses a finite-difference method for solving linear singularly perturbed convection-diffusion problems in one dimension. The previous proof of parameter-uniform convergence using the truncation-error and barrier-function approach on Bakhvalov-type meshes is extended to a hybrid second-order scheme. A new representation of the meshes is also proposed.
