Convergence of a finite element method on a Bakhvalov-type mesh for a singularly perturbed convection–diffusion equation in 2D
A finite element method of any order is applied on a Bakhvalov-type mesh to solve a singularly perturbed convection–diffusion equation in 2D, whose solution exhibits exponential boundary layers. A uniform convergence of (almost) optimal order is proved by means of a carefully defined interpolant.
