Mixed Isogeometric Analysis of the Brinkman Equation

This study focuses on numerical solution to the Brinkman equation with mixed Dirichlet–Neumann boundary conditions utilizing isogeometric analysis (IGA) based on non-uniform rational B-splines (NURBS) within the Galerkin method framework. The authors suggest using different choices of compatible NURBS spaces, which may be considered a generalization of traditional finite element spaces for velocity and pressure approximation. In order to investigate the numerical properties of the suggested elements, two numerical experiments based on a square and a quarter of an annulus are discussed. The preliminary results for the Stokes problem are presented in References

Numerical Simulation for Brinkman System with Varied Permeability Tensor

The aim of this paper is to study a stationary Brinkman problem in an anisotropic porous medium by using a mini-element method with a general boundary condition. One of the important aspects of the P1−Bubble/P1 method is satisfying the inf-sup condition, which allows us the existence and the uniqueness of the weak solution to our problem. To go further in this theoretical study, an a priori error estimate is established. To see the importance of this method in reality, we applied this method to a real problem. The numerical simulation studies support our results and demonstrate the effectiveness of this method

A Posteriori Error Estimators for the Quasi-Newtonian Stokes Problem with a General Boundary Condition

In this paper, we approach two nonlinear differential equations applied in fluid mechanics by finite element methods (FEM). Our objective is to approach the solution to these problems; the first one is the “p-Laplacian” problem and the second one is the “Quasi-Newtonian Stokes” problem with a general boundary condition. To study and analyze our solutions, we introduce the a posteriori error indicator; this technique allows us to control the error, and each is shown the equivalent between the true and the a posterior errors estimators. The performance of the finite element method by this type of general boundary condition is presented via different numerical simulations

A Mixed Finite Element Approximation for Time-Dependent Navier–Stokes Equations with a General Boundary Condition

In this paper, we present a numerical scheme for addressing the unsteady asymmetric flows governed by the incompressible Navier–Stokes equations under a general boundary condition. We utilized the Finite Element Method (FEM) for spatial discretization and the fully implicit Euler scheme for time discretization. In addition to the theoretical analysis of the error in our numerical scheme, we introduced two types of a posteriori error indicators: one for time discretization and another for spatial discretization, aimed at effectively controlling the error. We established the equivalence between these estimators and the actual error. Furthermore, we conducted numerical simulations in two dimensions to assess the accuracy and effectiveness of our scheme
