In this paper, we study convergence of a fully discrete scheme for the two-dimensional nonstationary Kelvin-Voigt model. This scheme is based on a finite element approximation for space discretization and the Crank-Nicolson-type scheme for time discretization, which is a two step method. Moreover, we obtain error estimates of velocity and pressure. At last, the applicability and effectiveness of the present algorithm are illustrated by numerical experiments.

AbstractWe introduce and study a fully discrete nonconforming finite element approximation for a parabolic variational inequality associated with a general obstacle problem. The method comprises of the Crouzeix–Raviart finite element method for space discretization and implicit backward Euler scheme for time discretization. We derive an error estimate of optimal order {\mathcal{O}(h+\Delta t)} in a certain energy norm defined precisely in the article. We only assume the realistic regularity {u_{t}\in L^{2}(0,T;L^{2}(\Omega))} and moreover the analysis is performed without any assumptions on the speed of propagation of the free boundary. We present a numerical experiment to illustrate the theoretical order of convergence derived in the article.

The stabilized Gauge-Uzawa method (SGUM), which is a 2nd-order projection type algorithm used to solve Navier-Stokes equations, has been newly constructed in the work of Pyo, 2013. In this paper, we apply the SGUM to the evolution Boussinesq equations, which model the thermal driven motion of incompressible fluids. We prove that SGUM is unconditionally stable, and we perform error estimations on the fully discrete finite element space via variational approach for the velocity, pressure, and temperature, the three physical unknowns. We conclude with numerical tests to check accuracy and physically relevant numerical simulations, the Bénard convection problem and the thermal driven cavity flow.

This paper presents fully discrete stabilized finite element methods for two-dimensional Bingham fluid flow based on the method of regularization. Motivated by the Brezzi-Pitkäranta stabilized finite element method, the equal-order piecewise linear finite element approximation is used for both the velocity and the pressure. Based on Euler semi-implicit scheme, a fully discrete scheme is introduced. It is shown that the proposed fully discrete stabilized finite element scheme results in the h1/2 error order for the velocity in the discrete norms corresponding to L2(0,T;H1(Ω)2)∩L∞(0,T;L2(Ω)2).

This work aims at providing a mathematical and numerical framework for the analysis on the effects of pulsed electric fields on the physical media that have a heterogeneous permittivity and a heterogeneous conductivity. Well-posedness of the model interface problem and the regularity of its solutions are established. A fully discrete finite element scheme is proposed for the numerical approximation of the potential distribution as a function of time and space simultaneously for an arbitrary-shaped pulse, and it is demonstrated to enjoy the optimal convergence order in both space and time. The new results and numerical scheme have potential applications in the fields of electromagnetism, medicine, food sciences, and biotechnology.

Abstract In this paper we study the numerical approximation of the stochastic Cahn–Hilliard–Navier–Stokes system on a bounded polygonal domain of $\mathbb{R}^{d}$, $d=2,3$. We propose and analyze an algorithm based on the finite element method and a semiimplicit Euler scheme in time for a fully discretization. We prove that the proposed numerical scheme satisfies the discrete mass conservative law, has finite energies and constructs a weak martingale solution of the stochastic Cahn–Hilliard–Navier–Stokes system when the discretization step (both in time and in space) tends to zero.
