An analysis of some nonconforming approximations of the Stokes problem is presented. The approximations are based on a strain-pressure variational formulation. In particular, a convergence and stability result for a method recently proposed by Bathe and Pantuso is provided.

β¦ Synopsis
Using the nonoverlapping domain decomposition approach, we propose a formulation of the dual Schur algorithm for the generalized Stokes problem discretized by a mixed finite element method continuous for the pressure in each subdomain, but discontinuous at the interfaces. The corresponding LBB condition is checked. The dual interface problem is written in the case of two subdomains, and it is generalized to several subdomains. An efficient preconditioner for the interface problem is derived. Numerical results are presented for two different local solvers. Parallel computations were made on an IBM-SP2.

This paper describes a domain decomposition method for the incompressible Navier -Stokes equations in general co-ordinates. Domain decomposition techniques are needed for solving flow problems in complicated geometries while retaining structured grids on each of the subdomains. This is the so-called
For the solution of practical flow problems in arbitrarily shaped domains, simple Schwarz domain decomposition methods with minimal overlap are quite efficient, provided Krylov subspace methods, e.g. the GMRES method, are used to accelerate convergence. With an accurate subdomain solution, the amoun
In this paper, an algorithm for the numerical in¨estigation of the generalized slot line ha¨ing a polygonal cross section is proposed. Solution of the eigenmode problem is based on the method, called the domain product technique, which employs a Mathieu function expansion. A good agreement between t
A quadrilateral based velocity-pressure-extrastress tensor mixed finite element method for solving the threefield Stokes system in the axisymmetric case is studied. The method derived from Fortin's Q2 -P1 velocitypressure element is to be used in connection with the standard Galerkin formulation. Th
