Abstract

The concern of the present work is the introduction of a very efficient Asymptotic Preserving scheme for the resolution of highly anisotropic diffusion equations. The characteristic features of this scheme are the uniform convergence with respect to the anisotropy parameter $0<\eps <<1$, the applicability (on cartesian grids) to cases of non-uniform and non-aligned anisotropy fields and the simple extension to the case of a non-constant anisotropy intensity $1/\eps$. The mathematical approach and the numerical scheme are different from those presented in the previous work [Degond et al. (2010), arXiv:1008.3405v1] and its considerable advantages are pointed out.
