Finite element analysis of a simplified stochastic Hookean dumbbells model arising from viscoelastic flows

Andrea Bonito, Philippe Clément, Marco Picasso (2006)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

A simplified stochastic Hookean dumbbells model arising from viscoelastic flows is considered, the convective terms being disregarded. A finite element discretization in space is proposed. Existence of the numerical solution is proved for small data, so as a priori error estimates, using an implicit function theorem and regularity results obtained in [Bonito et al., J. Evol. Equ.6 (2006) 381–398] for the solution of the continuous problem. A posteriori error estimates are also derived. Numerical...

Free-energy-dissipative schemes for the Oldroyd-B model

Sébastien Boyaval, Tony Lelièvre, Claude Mangoubi (2009)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

In this article, we analyze the stability of various numerical schemes for differential models of viscoelastic fluids. More precisely, we consider the prototypical Oldroyd-B model, for which a free energy dissipation holds, and we show under which assumptions such a dissipation is also satisfied for the numerical scheme. Among the numerical schemes we analyze, we consider some discretizations based on the log-formulation of the Oldroyd-B system proposed by Fattal and Kupferman in [J. Non-Newtonian...
