A Priori and A Posteriori Error Estimations for the Dual Mixed Finite Element Method of the Navier-Stokes Problem

چکیده
This article is concerned with a dual mixed formulation of the Navier-Stokes system in a polygonal domain of the plane with Dirichlet boundary conditions and its numerical approximation. The gradient tensor, a quantity of practical interest, is introduced as a new unknown. The problem is then approximated by a mixed finite element method. Quasi-optimal a priori error estimates are obtained. These a priori error estimates, an abstract nonlinear theory (similar to (Verfürth, RAIRO Model Math Anal Numer 32 (1998), 817–842)) and a posteriori estimates for the Stokes system from (Farhloul et al., Numer Funct Anal Optim 27 (2006), 831–846) lead to an a posteriori error estimate for the Navier-Stokes system. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A posteriori error estimates of stabilized low-order mixed finite elements for the Stokes eigenvalue problem
In this paper we obtain a priori and a posteriori error estimates for stabilized loworder mixed finite element methods for the Stokes eigenvalue problem. We prove the convergence of the method and a priori error estimates for the eigenfunctions and the eigenvalues. We define an error estimator of the residual type which can be computed locally from the approximate eigenpair and we prove that, u...
متن کاملA Priori and A Posteriori Pseudostress-velocity Mixed Finite Element Error Analysis for the Stokes Problem
The pseudostress-velocity formulation of the stationary Stokes problem allows a Raviart-Thomas mixed finite element formulation with quasi-optimal convergence and some superconvergent reconstruction of the velocity. This local postprocessing gives rise to some averaging a posteriori error estimator with explicit constants for reliable error control. Standard residual-based explicit a posteriori...
متن کاملStabilized finite element method for Navier-Stokes equations with physical boundary conditions
This paper deals with the numerical approximation of the 2D and 3D Navier-Stokes equations, satisfying nonstandard boundary conditions. This lays on the finite element discretisation of the corresponding Stokes problem, which is achieved through a three-fields stabilized mixed formulation. A priori and a posteriori error bounds are established for the nonlinear problem, ascertaining the converg...
متن کاملA Posteriori Error Estimator for Mixed Approximation of the Navier-Stokes Equations with the Boundary Condition
In this paper, we introduce the Navier-Stokes equations with a new boundary condition. In this context, we show the existence and uniqueness of the solution of the weak formulation associated with the proposed problem. To solve this latter, we use the discretization by mixed finite element method. In addition, two types of a posteriori error indicator are introduced and are shown to give global...

We consider a variational formulation of the three-dimensional Navier–Stokes equations with mixed boundary conditions and prove that the variational problem admits a solution provided that the domain satisfies a suitable regularity assumption. Next, we propose a finite element discretization relying on the Galerkin method and establish a priori and a posteriori error estimates. Mathematics Subj...
