An advection-robust Hybrid High-Order method for the Oseen problem
In this work, we study advection-robust Hybrid High-Order discretizations of
the Oseen equations. For a given integer , the discrete velocity
unknowns are vector-valued polynomials of total degree on mesh elements
and faces, while the pressure unknowns are discontinuous polynomials of total
degree on the mesh. From the discrete unknowns, three relevant
quantities are reconstructed inside each element: a velocity of total degree
, a discrete advective derivative, and a discrete divergence. These
reconstructions are used to formulate the discretizations of the viscous,
advective, and velocity-pressure coupling terms, respectively. Well-posedness
is ensured through appropriate high-order stabilization terms. We prove energy
error estimates that are advection-robust for the velocity, and show that each
mesh element of diameter contributes to the discretization error with
an -term in the diffusion-dominated regime, an
-term in the advection-dominated regime, and
scales with intermediate powers of in between. Numerical results complete
the exposition
Virtual Elements for the Navier-Stokes problem on polygonal meshes
A family of Virtual Element Methods for the 2D Navier-Stokes equations is
proposed and analysed. The schemes provide a discrete velocity field which is
point-wise divergence-free. A rigorous error analysis is developed, showing
that the methods are stable and optimally convergent. Several numerical tests
are presented, confirming the theoretical predictions. A comparison with some
mixed finite elements is also performed
