Abstract

A singularly perturbed transport equation is considered. A variable two-step backward differentiation formulas (BDF2) on a Shishkin-type mesh is used to discrete the first-order derivatives of the singularly perturbed transport equation. The stability and error analysis are derived by using the discrete orthogonal convolution kernels. It is proved that the scheme is second-order uniformly convergent with respect to the small parameter, which improves previous results. Numerical experiments are presented to support the theoretical result.
