A posteriori estimates for the stationary Stokes problem in exterior domains
2020
This paper is concerned with the analysis of the inf-sup condition arising in the stationary Stokes problem in exterior domains and applications to the derivation of computable bounds for the distance between the exact solution of the exterior Stokes problem and a certain approximation (which may be of a rather general form). In the first part, guaranteed bounds are deduced for the constant in the stability lemma associated with the exterior domain. These bounds depend only on known constants and the stability constant related to bounded domains that arise after suitable truncations of the unbounded domains. The lemma in question implies computable estimates of the distance to the set of di…
On a posteriori error bounds for approximations of the generalized Stokes problem generated by the Uzawa algorithm
2012
In this paper, we derive computable a posteriori error bounds for approximations computed by the Uzawa algorithm for the generalized Stokes problem. We show that for each Uzawa iteration both the velocity error and the pressure error are bounded from above by a constant multiplied by the L2-norm of the divergence of the velocity. The derivation of the estimates essentially uses a posteriori estimates of the functional type for the Stokes problem. peerReviewed
Mesh-adaptive methods for viscous flow problem with rotation
2007
In this paper, new functional type a posteriori error estimates for the viscous flow problem with rotating term are presented. The estimates give guaranteed upper bounds of the energy norm of the error and provide reliable error indication. We describe the implementation of the adaptive finite element methods (AFEM) in the framework of the functional type estimates proposed. Computational properties of the estimates are investigated on series of numerical examples.
Shape optimization for Stokes problem with threshold slip boundary conditions
2017
This paper deals with shape optimization of systems governed by the Stokes flow with threshold slip boundary conditions. The stability of solutions to the state problem with respect to a class of domains is studied. For computational purposes the slip term and impermeability condition are handled by a regularization. To get a finite dimensional optimization problem, the optimized part of the boundary is described by B´ezier polynomials. Numerical examples illustrate the computational efficiency. peerReviewed
Estimates of the Distance to Exact Solutions of the Stokes Problem with Slip and Leak Boundary Conditions
2019
We deduce a posteriori error estimates of functional type for the stationary Stokes problem with slip and leak boundary conditions. The derived error majorants do not contain mesh dependent constants and are valid for a wide class of energy admissible approximations that satisfy the Dirichlet boundary condition on a part of the boundary. Different forms of error majorants contain global constants associated with Poincaré type inequalities or the stability (LBB) condition for the Stokes problem or constants associated with subdomains (if a domain decomposition is applied). It is proved that the majorants are guaranteed and vanish if and only if the functions entering them coincide with the r…
A posteriori error estimates for variational problems in the theory of viscous fluids
2016
The papers included in the thesis are focused on functional type a posteriori error estimates for the Stokes problem, the Stokes problem with friction type boundary conditions, the Oseen problem, and the anti-plane Bingham problem. In the summary of the thesis we consider only the Oseen problem. The papers present and justify special forms of these estimates which are suitable for the approximations generated by the Uzawa algorithm. The estimates are of two main types. Estimates of the first type use exact solutions obtained on the steps of the Uzawa algorithm. They show how errors encompassed in Uzawa approximations behave and have mainly theoretical meaning. Estimates of the second type o…
Comparative Study of the a Posteriori Error Estimators for the Stokes Problem
2007
The research presented is focused on a comparative study of a posteriori error estimation methods to various approximations of the Stokes problem. Mainly, we are interested in the performance of functional type a posterior error estimates and their comparison with other methods. We show that functional type a posteriori error estimators are applicable to various types of approximations (including non-Galerkin ones) and robust with respect to the mesh structure, type of the finite element and computational procedure used. This allows the construction of effective mesh adaptation procedures in all cases considered. Numerical tests justify the approach suggested.
A Continuous Approach to FETI-DP Mortar Methods: Application to Dirichlet and Stokes Problem
2013
In this contribution we extend the FETI-DP mortar method for elliptic problems introduced by Bernardi et al. [2] and Chacon Vera [3] to the case of the incompressible Stokes equations showing that the same results hold in the two dimensional setting. These ideas extend easily to three dimensional problems. Finally some numerical tests are shown as a conclusion. This contribution is a condensed version of a more detailed forthcoming paper. We use standard notation, see for instance [1].
