Mixed Finite Element Methods for Incompressible Flow: Stationary Stokes Equations
In this article, we develop and analyze a mixed finite element method for the Stokes equations. Our mixed method is based on the pseudostress-velocity formulation. The pseudostress is approximated by the RaviartThomas (RT) element of index k ≥ 0 and the velocity by piecewise discontinuous polynomials of degree k. It is shown that this pair of finite elements is stable and yields quasi-optimal a...
متن کاملA non-conforming least-squares finite element method for incompressible fluid flow problems
In this paper, we develop least-squares finite element methods (LSFEMs) for incompressible fluid flows with improved mass conservation. Specifically, we formulate a new locally conservative LSFEM for the velocity– vorticity–pressure Stokes system, which uses a piecewise divergence-free basis for the velocity and standard C 0 elements for the vorticity and the pressure. The new method, which we ...
متن کاملLeast Squares Finite Element Methods for Viscous, Incompressible Flows
This paper is concerned with finite element methods of least-squares type for the approximate numerical solution of incompressible, viscous flow problems. Our main focus is on issues that are critical for the success of the finite element methods, such as decomposition of the Navier-Stokes equations into equivalent first-order systems, mathematical prerequisites for the optimality of the method...
متن کاملNon-conforming Mixed Finite Element Methods for Diffusion Equation
In this dissertation, we consider new approaches to the construction of meshes, discretization, and preconditioning of the resulting algebraic systems for the diffusion equation with discontinuous coefficients. In the first part, we discuss mixed finite element approximations of the diffusion equation on general polyhedral meshes. We introduce a non-conforming approximation method for the flux ...
متن کاملA Technique for Analyzing Finite Element Methods for Viscous Incompressible Flow
We give a self-contained presentation of our macroelement technique for verifying the stability of finite element discretizations of Navier-Stokes equations in the velocity-pressure formulation. The results are also presented in form suitable for the non-mathematical reader.
