Abstract

In this article, we develop an accurate and efficient wavelet-based collocation method for solving both linear and nonlinear singularly perturbed boundary-value problems that arise in fluid mechanics. The properties of the Haar wavelet expansions together with operational matrix of integration are used to convert the underlying problems into systems of algebraic equations which can be efficiently solved by suitable solvers. The performance of the numerical scheme is assessed and tested on specific test problems and the comparisons are given with other methods existing in the recent literature. The numerical outcomes indicate that the method yields highly accurate results and is computationally more efficient than the existing ones.
