✦ Synopsis
We present a new Neumann subproblem a posteriori finite-element procedure for the efficient calculation of rigorous, constant-free, sharp lower and upper bounds for linear and nonlinear functional outputs of the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. We first formulate the bound procedure; we derive and discuss a bound error expression; and we then demonstrate the capabilities of the method with numerical results obtained for natural convection problems. We also implement an optimal adaptive refinement strategy based on a local elemental decomposition of the bound gap.

A finite element technique is presented for the efficient generation of lower and upper bounds to outputs which are linear functionals of the solutions to the incompressible Stokes equations in two space dimensions.

A Neumann subproblem a posteriori finite element procedure for the efficient and accurate calculation of rigorous, constant-free upper and lower bounds for non-linear outputs of the Helmholtz equation in two-dimensional exterior domains is presented. The bound procedure is firstly formulated, with p
Our work is an extension of the previously proposed multivariant element. We assign this re®ned element as a compact mixed-order element in the sense that use of this element offers a much smaller bandwidth. The analysis is implemented on quadratic hexahedral elements with a view to analysing a thre
## Abstract This paper proposes and investigates fully coupled control‐volume finite element method (CVFEM) for solving the two‐dimensional incompressible Navier–Stokes equations. The proposed method borrows many of its features from the segregated CVFEM described by Baliga __et al.__ Thus finite‐v
