Analysis of finite element methods on Bakhvalov-type meshes for linear convection-diffusion problems in 2D. (English) Zbl 1249.65248

The finite element method for the numerical solution of the singularly perturbed linear convection-diffusion problem on Bakhalov-type meshes in 2D is analysed. So far optimal error estimates on Bakhalov-type meshes were only known in the one-dimensional case for this problem. The authors proved (almost) optimal error estimates for problems with exponential boundary layers in two dimensions.
