We present a finite difference method for a system of two singularly perturbed initial-boundary value semilinear reaction-diffusion equations. The highest order derivatives are multiplied by small perturbation parameters of different magnitudes. The problem is discretized using a central difference scheme in space and backward difference scheme in time on a Shishkin mesh. The convergence analysis has been given, and it has been established that the method enjoys almost second-order parameter-uniform convergence in space and first-order in time. Numerical experiments are conducted to demonstrate the efficiency of the method.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
