Singular Perturbation Techniques: A Comparison of the Method of Matched Asymptotic Expansions with That of Multiple Scales

A comparison is made between the uniformly valid asymptotic representations which can be developed for the solution of a singular perturbation boundary value problem involving a linear second order differential equation by using both the technique of matched asymptotic expansions and the method of m...

description A comparison is made between the uniformly valid asymptotic representations which can be developed for the solution of a singular perturbation boundary value problem involving a linear second order differential equation by using both the technique of matched asymptotic expansions and the method of multiple scales. Next, there is a discussion of some of the subtle features as well as the relative advantages, limitations, logical extensions, and typical applications of these two methods of obtaining uniformly valid asymptotic representations when applied to slightly more general singular perturbation problems which arise from investigations of various phenomena in the natural sciences. Finally, a parameter identification example relevant to biological population dynamics is presented to illustrate the fact that the mere knowledge of these singular perturbation techniques can be a powerful analytical tool.
