Fitted Mesh Techniques for Flow Problems

Robust layer-resolving methods are important for flow problems having non-smooth solutions with singularities
related to boundary layers. A numerical method is layer-resolving if it generates, at each point of the domain,
numerical approximations of the exact solution and its derivatives, for all values of the singular perturbation
parameter. These approximations must satisfy pointwise error bounds and be computable with an amount of work, all of which are independent of this parameter. It is robust if these approximations inherit the stability properties of the exact
solution by preserving the monotonicity of the original problem. Robust layer-resolving methods are constructed using
upwind finite difference operators on Shishkin meshes for four classical flow problems.
