Frontiers in Applied Mathematics and Statistics, 9, 1068890. 10.3389/fams.2023.10688902297-4687https://doi.org/10.3389/fams.2023.1068890http://hdl.handle.net/10566/9071This article focuses on a numerical solution of the singularly perturbed Burgers-Huxley equation. The simultaneous presence of a singular perturbation parameter and the nonlinearity raise the challenge of finding a reliable and e cient numerical solution for this equation via the classical numericalmethods. To overcome this challenge, a nonstandard finite di􀀀erence (NSFD) scheme is developed in the following manner. The time variable is discretized using the backward Euler method. This gives rise to a system of nonlinear ordinary di􀀀erential equations which are then dealt with using the concept of nonlocal approximation. Through a rigorous error analysis, the proposed scheme has been shown to be parameter-uniformconvergent. Simulations conducted on two numerical examples confirm the theoretical result. A comparison with other methods in terms of accuracy and computational cost reveals the superiority of the proposed scheme.enMathematicsBurgers-Huxley equationApplied MathematicsNonlinear equationArticle
