摘要： In this paper, we propose a new stabilized linear finite element method for solving reaction–convection–diffusion equations with arbitrary magnitudes of reaction and diffusion. The key feature of the new method is that the test function in the stabilization term is taken in the adjoint-operator-like form −εΔv−(a⋅∇v)/γ+σv, where the parameter γ is appropriately designed to adjust the convection strength to achieve high accuracy and stability. We derive the stability estimates for the finite element solutions and establish the explicit dependence of L2 and H1 error bounds on the diffusivity, modulus of the convection field, reaction coefficient and the mesh size. The analysis shows that the proposed method is suitable for a wide range of mesh Péclet numbers and mesh Damköhler numbers. More specifically, if the diffusivity ε is sufficiently small with ε<‖a‖h and the reaction coefficient σ is large enough such that ‖a‖<σh, then the method exhibits optimal convergence rates in both L2 and H1 norms. However, for a small reaction coefficient satisfying ‖a‖≥σh, the method behaves like the well-known streamline upwind/Petrov–Galerkin formulation of Brooks and Hughes. Several numerical examples exhibiting boundary or interior layers are given to demonstrate the high performance of the proposed method. Moreover, we apply the developed method to time-dependent reaction–convection–diffusion problems and simulation results show the efficiency of the approach. 出版者： Elsevier B.V 出版日期： 2016-08-01 出處： Computer methods in applied mechanics and engineering, 2016-08, Vol.307, p.362-382 資源來源： Elsevier ScienceDirect Journals Complete 版權： 2016 Elsevier B.V. 識別號： ISSN: 0045-7825 識別號： EISSN: 1879-2138 識別號： DOI: 10.1016/j.cma.2016.04.024
