A New Characteristic Nonconforming Mixed Finite Element Scheme for Convection-Dominated Diffusion Problem

A characteristic nonconforming mixed finite element method (MFEM) is proposed for the convection-dominated diffusion problem based on a new mixed variational formulation. The optimal order error estimates for both the original variable u and the auxiliary variable σ with respect to the space are obt...
