Summary: We apply the semi-discrete formulation, where the time variable is discretized using an implicit multi-stage method and the space variable is discretized using the finite element method, to obtain numerical solutions for the 1D convection-diffusion-reaction and the Burgers equation, whose analytical solutions are known. More specifically, we use the implicit multi-stage method of second- and fourth-order for time discretization. For space discretization, we use three finite elements methods, least squares (LSFEM), Galerkin (GFEM) and streamline-upwind Petrov-Galerkin (SUPG). We present an error analysis, comparing the numerical with analytical solutions. We verify that the implicit multi-stage second-order method when combined with the LSFEM, GFEM and SUPG, increases the region of convergence of the numerical solutions. LSFEM presents the better performance when compared to GFEM and SUPG.
