A residual-based a posteriori error estimator for finite element discretizations of the steady incompressible Navier-Stokes equations in the primitive variable formulation is discussed. Though the estimator is similar to existing ones, an alternate derivation is presented, involving an abstract esti

β¦ Synopsis
Two-and multilevel truncated Newton finite element discretizations are presently a very promising approach for approximating the (nonlinear) Navier-Stokes equations describing the equilibrium flow of a viscous, incompressible fluid. Their combination with mesh adaptivity is considered in this article. Specifically, locally calculable c1 posteriori error estimators are derived, with full mathematical support, for the basic two-level discretization of the Navier-Stokes equations. 0 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
