In this research note we provide a variational basis for the optimal artificial diffusion method, which has been a cornerstone in developing many stabilized methods. The optimal artificial diffusion method produces exact nodal solutions when applied to one-dimensional problems with constant coefficients and forcing function. We first present a variational principle for a multi-dimensional advective-diffusive system, and then derive a new stable weak formulation. When applied to one-dimensional problems with constant coefficients and forcing function, this resulting weak formulation will be equivalent to the optimal artificial diffusion method. We present representative numerical results to corroborate our theoretical findings.
