β¦ Synopsis
In this work we discuss stable equal-order finite element formulations for incompressible flow problems based on Petrov-Galerkin methods, constructed by adding to the classical Galerkin formulation leastsquares of the governing equations. Continuous and discontinuous pressure interpolations are considered. Numerical results are presented reinforcing the numerical analysis.

## Abstract A finite element method for simulating the creeping flow of an incompressible material is presented. The method allows for (1) a quadratic approximation of the velocity field, (2) material incompressibility everywhere within an element and (3) the ability to follow the flow through larg
Earlier formulations of the finite element approach to cylindrical ( r z ) field problems led initially to variational expressions containing a simple term in l / r and consequent attempts to remove it by appropriate choice of interpolation functions. The present paper uses new interpolation functio
