چکیده

The variational formulation of the Stokes problem with three independent unknowns, the vorticity, the velocity and the pressure, was born to handle non standard boundary conditions which involve the normal component of the velocity and the tangential components of the vorticity. We propose an extension of this formulation to the case of mixed boundary conditions in a three-dimensional domain. Next we consider a spectral discretization of this problem. A detailed numerical analysis leads to error estimates for the three unknowns and numerical experiments confirm the interest of the discretization. Résumé: La formulation variationnelle du problème de Stokes avec trois inconnues indépendantes, le tourbillon, la vitesse et la pression, est née pour traiter des conditions aux limites non usuelles portant sur la composante normale de la vitesse et les composantes tangentielles du tourbillon. Nous proposons une extension de cette formulation au cas de conditions aux limites mixtes dans un domaine tri-dimensionnel. Nous considérons ensuite une discrétisation obtenue par méthode spectrale. Une analyse numérique détaillée permet d’établir des majorations d’erreur pour les trois inconnues et des expériences numériques confirment l’intérêt de la discrétisation. 1 Université Badji-Mokhtar, Faculté des Sciences, Département de Mathématiques, B.P. 12, 23000 Annaba, Algérie. 2 Laboratoire Jacques-Louis Lions, C.N.R.S. & Université Pierre et Marie Curie, B.C. 187, 4 place Jussieu, 75252 Paris Cedex 05, France. 3 Department of Mathematics, College of Science, King Saud University, P.O.

Numerical resolution of large deflections in cantilever beams by Bernstein spectral method and a convolution quadrature.

The mathematical modeling of the large deflections for the cantilever beams leads to a nonlinear differential equation with the mixed boundary conditions. Different numerical methods have been implemented by various authors for such problems. In this paper, two novel numerical techniques are investigated for the numerical simulation of the problem. The first is based on a spectral method utiliz...

A priori error estimates for compatible spectral discretization of the Stokes problem for all admissible boundary conditions

This paper describes the recently developed mixed mimetic spectral element method for the Stokes problem in the vorticity-velocity-pressure formulation. This compatible discretization method relies on the construction of a conforming discrete Hodge decomposition, that is based on a bounded projection operator that commutes with the exterior derivative. The projection operator is the composition...

A Posteriori Error Analysis of the Time Dependent Navier-stokes Equations with Mixed Boundary Conditions

In this paper we study the time dependent Navier-Stokes problem with mixed boundary conditions. The problem is discretized by the backward Euler’s scheme in time and finite elements in space. We establish optimal a posteriori error estimates with two types of computable error indicators, the first one being linked to the time discretization and the second one to the space discretization. We fin...

Mixed mimetic spectral element method for Stokes flow: A pointwise divergence-free solution

In this paper we apply the recently developed mimetic discretization method [44] to the mixed formulation of the Stokes problem in terms of the vorticity-velocity-pressure formulation. The mimetic discretization presented in this paper and in [44] is a higher-order method for curvilinear quadrilaterals. It relies on the language of differential k-forms, k-cochains as its discrete counterpart, a...
