In this article, a stabilized mixed finite element (FE) method for the Oseen viscoelastic fluid flow (OVFF) obeying an Oldroyd-B type constitutive law is proposed and investigated by using the Streamline Upwind Petrov–Galerkin (SUPG) method. To find the approximate solution of velocity, pressure and stress tensor, we choose lowest-equal order FE triples P 1 - P 1 - P 1 , respectively. However, it is well known that these elements do not fulfill the i n f - s u p condition. Due to the violation of the main stability condition for mixed FE method, the system becomes unstable. To overcome this difficulty, a standard stabilization term is added in finite element variational formulation. The technique is applied herein possesses attractive features, such as parameter-free, flexible in computation and does not require any higher-order derivatives. The stability analysis and optimal error estimates are obtained. Three benchmark numerical tests are carried out to assess the stability and accuracy of the stabilized lowest-equal order feature of the OVFF.

AbstractThe perspective of this paper is to characterize a Casson type of Non-Newtonian fluid flow through heat as well as mass conduction towards a stretching surface with thermophoresis and radiation absorption impacts in association with periodic hydromagnetic effect. Here heat absorption is also integrated with the heat absorbing parameter. A time dependent fundamental set of equations, i.e. momentum, energy and concentration have been established to discuss the fluid flow system. Explicit finite difference technique is occupied here by executing a procedure in Compaq Visual Fortran 6.6a to elucidate the mathematical model of liquid flow. The stability and convergence inspection has been accomplished. It has observed that the present work converged at, Pr ≥ 0.447 indicates the value of Prandtl number and Le ≥ 0.163 indicates the value of Lewis number. Impact of useful physical parameters has been illustrated graphically on various flow fields. It has inspected that the periodic magnetic field has helped to increase the interaction of the nanoparticles in the velocity field significantly. The field has been depicted in a vibrating form which is also done newly in this work. Subsequently, the Lorentz force has also represented a great impact in the updated visualization (streamlines and isotherms) of the flow field. The respective fields appeared with more wave for the larger values of magnetic parameter. These results help to visualize a theoretical idea of the effect of modern electromagnetic induction use in industry instead of traditional energy sources. Moreover, it has a great application in lung and prostate cancer therapy.
