A Contact Problem for a Convection-diffusion Equation

20.6 Conclusions

We have proposed an efficient iterative domain decomposition method that solves general convection-diffusion singular perturbation problems. Our specific application involves a piecewise constant diffusion coefficient. We have established sufficient conditions for the convergence of the method, identified suitable values of the relaxation parameter ϑ, and started investigations into the rate of convergence. The method was implemented to O(ε2) to solve test problems.

Full details of the proofs of these assertions will appear in a future publication.
