Abstract
The construction of the Newton-Cotes formulas is based on approximating an integrand by the Lagrange polynomial. The error of such quadrature formulas can be serious for a function with a boundary-layer component. In this paper, an analogue to the Newton-Cotes rule with four nodes is constructed. The construction is based on using non-polynomial interpolation that is accurate for a boundary layer component. Estimates of the accuracy of the quadrature rule, uniform on gradients of the boundary layer component, are obtained. Numerical experiments have been performed.
