Abstract
A Galerkin finite element method that uses piecewise linear functions on Shishkin- and Bakhvalov-Shishkin-type of meshes is applied to a linear reaction-diffusion equation with discontinuous source term. The method is shown to be convergent, uniformly in the perturbation parameter, of order N-2ln2N for the Shishkin-type mesh and N-2 for the Bakhvalov-Shishkin-type mesh, where N is the mesh size number. Numerical experiments support our theoretical results.
