Analysis of linear triangular elements for convection-diffusion problems by streamline diffusion finite element methods. (English) Zbl 1141.65392

Summary: This paper is devoted to studying the superconvergence of streamline diffusion finite element methods for convection-diffusion problems. In G. H. Zhou and R. Rannacher [Math. Comput. 66, No. 217, 31–44 (1997; Zbl 0854.65094)], under the condition that \(\varepsilon \leq h^2\) the optimal finite element error estimate was obtained in \(L^2\)-norm. In the present paper, however, the same error estimate result is gained under the weaker condition that \(\varepsilon \leq h\).
