Abstract

We consider a Galerkin finite element method that uses piecewise linears on a class of Shishkin-type meshes for a model singularly perturbed convection-diffusion problem. We pursue two approaches in constructing superconvergent approximations of the gradient. The first approach uses superconvergence points for the derivative, while the second one combines the consistency of a recovery operator with the superconvergence property of an interpolant. Numerical experiments support our theoretical results.
