The mixed finite element approximation scheme with divergence augmentation for the Stokes problem is analyzed. We show that the Pk+l --Pk-1 triangular elements or the Qk+l -Qk-1 quadrilateral elements in R 2, k > 1, are stable with h k+l/2 convergence in HI-norm for velocity and h k convergence in L

✦ Synopsis
Two hp-finite element methods for the Stokes problem in polygonal domains are presented: We discuss the S k × S k-2 elements which are stable on anisotropic and irregular meshes and introduce a stabilized Galerkin Least Squares approach featuring equal-order interpolation in the velocity and the pressure. Both methods lead to exponential rates of convergence provided that the data is piecewise analytic. Numerical studies on an L-shaped domain confirm these theoretical results.

In this work we present an adaptive strategy (based on an a posteriori error estimator) for a stabilized finite element method for the Stokes problem, with and without a reaction term. The hierarchical type estimator is based on the solution of local problems posed on appropriate finite dimensional
The numerical solution of the non-stationary, incompressible Navier-Stokes model can be split into linearized auxiliary problems of Oseen type. We present in a unique way different stabilization techniques of finite element schemes on isotropic meshes. First we describe the state-of-the-art for the

This paper proposes and analyzes a numerical method for solving the coupled Stokes and Darcy problem, an interface problem between a fluid, governed by Stokes equations, and a flow in a porous medium, governed by Darcy equations. The method employs H(div) conforming finite elements for the velocity
