• ### Wavelet-galerkin method for the singular perturbation problem with boundary layers

Publication Year: 2000, Page(s):365 - 369
| | PDF (955 KB)

A Wavelet-Galerkin method is proposed to solve the singular perturbation problem with boundary layers numerically. Because there are boundary layers in the solution of the singular perturbation problem the approximation spaces with different scale wavelets and boundary bases are chosen. In addition the computation of the inner integrals is transformed to an eigenvalue problem. Therefore a high acc... View full abstract»
