We consider higher order mixed finite element methods for the incompressible Stokes or Navier-Stokes equations with Qr-elements for the velocity and discontinuous -elements for the pressure where the order r can vary from element to element between 2 and a fixed bound . We prove the inf-sup condition uniformly with respect to the meshwidth h on general quadrilateral and hexahedral meshes with hanging nodes.
We consider the spatial behavior of the velocity field of a fluid filling the whole space () for arbitrarily small values of the time variable. We improve previous results on the spatial spreading by deducing the necessary conditions under more general assumptions on the localization of . We also give some new examples of solutions which have a stronger spatial localization than in the generic case.
We consider the spatial behavior of the velocity field u(x, t) of a fluid filling the whole space () for arbitrarily small values of the time variable. We improve previous results on the spatial spreading by deducing the necessary conditions under more general assumptions on the localization of u. We also give some new examples of solutions which have a stronger spatial localization than in the generic case.
We establish regularity results up to the boundary for solutions to generalized Stokes and Navier–Stokes systems of equations in the stationary and evolutive cases. Generalized here means the presence of a shear dependent viscosity. We treat the case . Actually, we are interested in proving regularity results in spaces for all the second order derivatives of the velocity and all the first order derivatives of the pressure. The main aim of the present paper is to extend our previous scheme, introduced...
We consider a model for the viscoelastic fluid which has recently been studied in [4] and [1]. We show the local-in-time existence of a strong solution to the corresponding system of partial differential equations under less regularity assumptions on the initial data than in the above mentioned papers. The main difference in our approach is the use of the theory for the Stokes system.
We show that the global-in-time solutions to the compressible Navier-Stokes equations driven by highly oscillating external forces stabilize to globally defined (on the whole real line) solutions of the same system with the driving force given by the integral mean of oscillations. Several stability results will be obtained.
We consider the problem of motion of several rigid bodies in a viscous fluid. Both compressible and incompressible fluids are studied. In both cases, the existence of globally defined weak solutions is established regardless possible collisions of two or more rigid objects.
In this paper, we deal with the optimal choice of the parameter for augmented Lagrangian preconditioning of GMRES method for efficient solution of linear systems obtained from discretization of the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. We consider discretization of the equations using the B-spline based isogeometric analysis approach. We are interested in the dependence of the convergence on the parameter for various problem parameters (Reynolds number, mesh refinement) and especially for...
We derive various estimates for strong solutions to the Navier-Stokes equations in C([0,T),L3(R3)) that allow us to prove some regularity results on the kinematic bilinear term.
