An Initial Value Technique using Exponentially Fitted Non Standard Finite Difference Method for Singularly Perturbed Differential-Difference Equations

Abstract

In this paper, an exponentially fitted non standard finite difference method is proposed to solve singularly perturbed differential-difference equations with boundary layer on left and right sides of the interval. In this method, the original second order differential difference equation is replaced by an asymptotically equivalent singularly perturbed problem and in turn the problem is replaced by an asymptotically equivalent first order problem. This initial value problem is solve by using exponential fitting with non standard finite differences. To validate the applicability of the method, several model examples have been solved by taking different values for the delay parameter δ , advanced parameter η and the perturbation parameter ε . Comparison of the results is shown to justify the method. The effect of the small shifts on the boundary layer solutions has been investigated and presented in figures. The convergence of the scheme has also been investigated
