Finite Element Analysis of Incompressible Viscous Flows by the Penalty Function Formulation
نویسنده
چکیده
A review of recent work and new developments are presented for the penalty-function, finite element formulation of incompressible viscous flows. Basic features of the penalty method are described in the context of the steady and unsteady Navier-Stokes equations. Galerkin and “upwind” treatments of convection terms are discussed. Numerical results indicate the versatility and effectiveness of the new methods.

Application of Barycenter Refined Meshes in Linear Elasticity and Incompressible Fluid Dynamics
The paper demonstrates that enhanced stability properties of some finite element methods on barycenter refined meshes enables efficient numerical treatment of problems involving incompressible or nearly incompressible media. One example is the linear elasticity problem in a pure displacement formulation, where a lower order finite element method is studied which is optimal order accurate and ro...
متن کاملA Finite Element Method for Viscous Incompressible Thermal Flows
A finite element method for steady-state viscous incompressible thermal flows has been developed. The finite element equations are derived from a set of coupled nonlinear Navier-Stokes equations that consists of the conservation of mass, momentum, and energy equations. These derived finite element equations are validated by developing a corresponding finite element computer program that can be ...

متن کاملSimple finite element method in vorticity formulation for incompressible flows
A very simple and eÆcient nite element method is introduced for two and three dimensional viscous incompressible ows using the vorticity formulation. The method relies on recasting traditional nite element method in the spirit of the high order accurate nite di erence methods introduced by the authors in [10]. Optimal accuracy of arbitrary order can be achieved using standard nite element or sp...
