Abstract
In the present paper a survey is given on the application of Shishkin grids to convection-diffusion problems with dominant convection, further some new results and open problems are presented. The practical importance of these simplestructured grids lies in the possibility to resolve layers - the alternative technique of exponential fitting is not always successful. The use of uniformly stable method on a carefully chosen Shishkin mesh often leads to a uniformly convergent method.

Sufficient conditions for uniform convergence on layer-adapted grids

Hans-Görg Roos, +1 more
- 20 Jul 1999 - 
TL;DR: Conditions on the mesh-characterizing function are derived that are sufficient for the convergence of the method, uniformly with respect to the perturbation parameter, and enable one to immediately deduce the rate of convergence.

A brief survey on numerical methods for solving singularly perturbed problems

TL;DR: This survey paper contains a surprisingly large amount of literature on singularly perturbed problems and indeed can serve as an introduction to some of the ideas and methods for the singular perturbation problems.

Layer-adapted meshes for convection-diffusion problems

TL;DR: T theoretical results are presented that demonstrate that the use of properly layer-adapted meshes yields robust methods, i.e., methods that perform equally well no matter how dominant the convection.

The SDFEM for a Convection-Diffusion Problem with a Boundary Layer: Optimal Error Analysis and Enhancement of Accuracy

TL;DR: An error bound is proved for the streamline-diffusion finite element method, showing that $u-u^N$ is superclose to $u^I$, which allows the construction of a simple postprocessing that yields a more accurate solution.

Finite element superconvergence on Shishkin mesh for 2-D convection-diffusion problems

TL;DR: In this work, the bilinear finite element method on a Shishkin mesh for convection-diffusion problems is analyzed in the two-dimensional setting and an e-uniform convergence of order N-3/2ln5/2N + eN-1ln1/ 2N in the L∞ norm is proved for some mesh points in the boundary layer region.
