Abstract
This chapter is concerned with finite-difference discretisations of the stationary linear convection-diffusion problem
with b ≥ β > 0 on [0, 1]. For the sake of simplicity we shall assume that
Using (4.1) as a model problem, a general convergence theory for certain firstand second-order upwinded difference schemes on arbitrary and on layer-adapted meshes is derived. The close relationship between the differential operator and its upwinded discretisations is highlighted.
