On a relaxation approximation of the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations

We consider a hyperbolic singular perturbation of the incompressible Navier Stokes equations in two space dimensions. The approximating system under consideration arises as a diffusive rescaled version of a standard relaxation approximation for the incompressible Euler equations. The aim of this work is to give a rigorous justification of its asymptotic limit toward the Navier Stokes equations using the modulated energy method.

Approximation of the incompressible non‐Newtonian fluid equations by the artificial compressibility method

This paper studies the approximation of the non‐Newtonian fluid equations by the artificial compressibility method. We first introduce a family of perturbed compressible non‐Newtonian fluid equations (depending on a positive parameter ε) that approximates the incompressible equations as ε → 0⁺. Then, we prove the unique existence and convergence of solutions for the compressible equations to the solutions of the incompressible equations. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Quasi-Neutral Limit of the Euler–Poisson and Euler–Monge–Ampère Systems

ABSTRACT

This paper studies the pressureless Euler–Poisson system and its fully nonlinear counterpart, the Euler–Monge–Ampère system, where the fully nonlinear Monge–Ampère equation substitutes for the linear Poisson equation. While the first is a model of plasma physics, the second is derived as a geometric approximation to the Euler incompressible equations. Using energy estimates, convergence of both systems to the Euler incompressible equations is proved.     

On Error Estimates of the Projection Methods for the Navier-Stokes Equations: Second-order Schemes

We present in this paper a rigorous error analysis of several projection schemes for the approximation of the unsteady incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. The error analysis is accomplished by interpreting the respective projection schemes as second-order time discretizations of a perturbed system which approximates the Navier-Stokes equations. Numerical results in agreement with the error analysis are also presented.

     

Mean-Square Approximation of Navier-Stokes Equations with Additive Noise in Vorticity-Velocity Formulation

We consider a time discretization of incompressible Navier-Stokes equations with spatial periodic boundary conditions and additive noise in the vorticity-velocity formulation. The approximation is based on freezing the velocity on time subintervals resulting in a linear stochastic parabolic equation for vorticity. At each time step, the velocity is expressed via vorticity using a formula corresponding to the Biot-Savart-type law. We prove the first mean-square convergence order of the vorticity approximation.     

Approximation of the unsteady Brinkman‐Forchheimer equations by the pressure stabilization method

In this work, we propose and analyze the pressure stabilization method for the unsteady incompressible Brinkman‐Forchheimer equations. We present a time discretization scheme which can be used with any consistent finite element space approximation. Second‐order error estimate is proven. Some numerical results are also given.© 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Numer Methods Partial Differential Eq 33: 1949–1965, 2017     

The Inviscid Limit for the Steady Incompressible Navier-Stokes Equations in the Three Dimension*

In this paper, the authors consider the zero-viscosity limit of the three dimensional incompressible steady Navier-Stokes equations in a half space R⁺×R². The result shows that the solution of three dimensional incompressible steady Navier-Stokes equations converges to the solution of three dimensional incompressible steady Euler equations in Sobolev space as the viscosity coefficient going to zero. The method is based on a new weighted energy estimates and Nash-Moser itera...

Error estimates for an operator-splitting method for Navier-Stokes equations: Second-order schemes

We present in this paper an error analysis of a fractional-step method for the approximation of the unsteady incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. Under mild regularity assumptions on the continuous solution, we obtain second-order error estimates in the time step size, both for velocity and pressure. Numerical results in agreement with the error analysis are also presented.     

A TWO-LEVEL FINITE ELEMENT GALERKIN METHOD FOR THE NONSTATIONARY NAVIER-STOKES EQUATIONS I： SPATIAL DISCRETIZATION

In this article we consider a two-level finite element Galerkin method using mixed finite elements for the two-dimensional nonstationary incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. The method yields a $H^1$-optimal velocity approximation and a $L_2$-optimal pressure approximation. The two-level finite element Galerkin method involves solving one small, nonlinear Navier-Stokes problem on the coarse mesh with mesh size $H$, one linear Stokes problem on the fine mesh with mesh size $h << H$. The algorithm we study produces an approximate solution with the optimal, asymptotic in $h$, accuracy.     

Haar wavelet approximation for magnetohydrodynamic flow equations

This study proposes Haar wavelet (HW) approximation method for solving magnetohydrodynamic flow equations in a rectangular duct in presence of transverse external oblique magnetic field. The method is based on approximating the truncated double Haar wavelets series. Numerical solution of velocity and induced magnetic field is obtained for steady-state, fully developed, incompressible flow for a conducting fluid inside the duct. The calculations show that the accuracy of the Haar wavelet solutions is quite good even in the case of a small number of grid points. The HW approximation method may be used in a wide variety of high-order linear partial differential equations. Application of the HW approximation method showed that it is reliable, simple, fast, least computation at costs and flexible.     

Stability of a colocated finite volume scheme for the Navier‐Stokes equations

The aim of this article is to describe a colocated finite volume approximation of the incompressible Navier‐Stokes equation and study its stability. One of the advantages of colocated finite volume space discretizations over staggered space discretizations is that all the variables share the same location; hence, the possibility to more easily use complex geometries and hierarchical decompositions of the unknowns. The time discretization used in the scheme studied here is a projection method. First, we give the full discretization of the incompressible Navier‐Stokes equations, then, we state the stability result and prove it following the methods of Marion and Temam. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

This paper studies the approximation of solutions for the incompressible convective Brinkman–Forchheimer (CBF) equations via the artificial compressibility method. We first introduce a family of perturbed compressible CBF equations that approximate the incompressible CBF equations. Then, we prove the existence and convergence of solutions for the compressible CBF equations to the solutions of the incompressible CBF equations.

Shape optimization for Stokes flow

This paper is concerned with a shape sensitivity analysis of a viscous incompressible fluid driven by Stokes equations. The structures of continuous shape gradients with respect to the shape of the variable domain for some given cost functionals are established by introducing the Piola transformation and then deriving the state derivative and its associated adjoint state. Finally we give the finite element approximation of the problem and a gradient type algorithm is effectively used for our problem.     

Long Time Behavior of the Cahn-Hilliard Equation with Irregular Potentials and Dynamic Boundary Conditions

First‐order system least squares for the Oseen equations

Following earlier work for Stokes equations, a least squares functional is developed for two‐ and three‐dimensional Oseen equations. By introducing a velocity flux variable and associated curl and trace equations, ellipticity is established in an appropriate product norm. The form of Oseen equations examined here is obtained by linearizing the incompressible Navier–Stokes equations. An algorithm is presented for approximately solving steady‐state, incompressible Navier–Stokes equations with a nested iteration‐Newton‐FOSLS‐AMG iterative scheme, which involves solving a sequence of Oseen equations. Some numerical results for Kovasznay flow are provided. Copyright © 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
