We use a mixed formulation requiring only $C^{0}$ basis functions in two-dimensional smooth domains. Under the assumption of analytic data, we show that the method converges uniformly, with respect to both singular perturbation parameters, at an exponential rate when the error is measured in the energy norm. Our theoretical findings are illustrated through numerical examples, including results using a stronger (balanced) norm.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2020-08-04T20:07:00.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "65N30" ], "keywords": [ "fourth order boundary value problems", "perturbed fourth order boundary value", "singularly perturbed fourth order boundary", "small parameters", "perturbed boundary value" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
