A Sobolev gradient method for treating the steady-state incompressible Navier-Stokes equations
The velocity-vorticity-pressure formulation of the steady-state incompressible Navier-Stokes equations in two dimensions is cast as a nonlinear least squares problem in which the functional is a weighted sum of squared residuals. A finite element discretization of the functional is minimized by a trust-region method in which the trustregion radius is defined by a Sobolev norm and the trust-region subproblems are solved by a dogleg method. Numerical test results show the method to be effective.
