Abstract
The paper studies finite element methods for the simulation of time-dependent convection-diffusion-reaction equations with small diffusion: the SUPG method, a SOLD method and two types of FEM-FCT methods. The methods are assessed, in particular with respect to the size of the spurious oscillations in the computed solutions, at a 3D example with nonhomogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions and homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions.
