چکیده
Abstract. In this paper we introduce a new class of numerical schemes for the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations, which are inspired by the theory of discrete kinetic schemes for compressible fluids. For these approximations it is possible to give a stability condition, based on a discrete velocities version of the Boltzmann H–theorem. Numerical tests are performed to investigate their accuracy.

Discrete functional analysis tools for Discontinuous Galerkin methods with application to the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations
Two discrete functional analysis tools are established for spaces of piecewise polynomial functions on general meshes: (i) a discrete counterpart of the continuous Sobolev embeddings, in both Hilbertian and non-Hilbertian settings; (ii) a compactness result for bounded sequences in a suitable Discontinuous Galerkin norm, together with a weak convergence property for some discrete gradients. The...
متن کاملA new discrete velocity method for Navier–Stokes equations
The relation between the Lattice Boltzmann Method, which has recently become popular, and the Kinetic Schemes, which are routinely used in Computational Fluid Dynamics, is explored. A new discrete velocity model for the numerical solution of Navier–Stokes equations for incompressible fluid flow is presented by combining both the approaches. The new scheme can be interpreted as a pseudo-compress...
متن کاملConvergence of a Singular Euler-poisson Approximation of the Incompressible Navier-stokes Equations
In this note, we rigorously justify a singular approximation of the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. Our approximation combines two classical approximations of the incompressible Euler equations: a standard relaxation approximation, but with a diffusive scaling, and the Euler-Poisson equations in the quasineutral regime.
متن کاملLattice-Boltzmann type relaxation systems and high order relaxation schemes for the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations
A relaxation system based on a Lattice-Boltzmann type discrete velocity model is considered in the low Mach number limit. A third order relaxation scheme is developed working uniformly for all ranges of the mean free path and Mach number. In the incompressible Navier-Stokes limit the scheme reduces to an explicit high order finite difference scheme for the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations...
متن کاملConvergence of a Navier-stokes-poisson Approximation of the Incompressible Navier-stokes Equations
This paper studies the quasi-neutral limit of pressureless Navier-Stokes-Poisson equations in plasma physics in the torus T. For well prepared initial data the convergence of solutions of compressible Navier-Stokes-Poisson equations to the solutions of incompressible Navier-Stokes equations is justified rigorously by using the curl-div decomposition of the gradient. And a priori estimates with ...
