The paper compares two dierent two-grid ®nite element formulations applied to the Navier±Stokes equations, namely a multigrid and a mixed or composite formulation. In the latter case the pressure is interpolated on a coarser grid than the velocity, using mixed elements instead of mixed interpolation
A velocity-vorticity formulation of the Navier-Stokes equations is presented as an alternative to the primitive variables approach. The velocity components and the vorticity are solved for in a fully coupled manner using a Newton method. No artificial viscosity is required in this formulation. The p
