The full approximation accuracy for the stream function-vorticity- pressure method (Q1338814): Difference between revisions

The authors consider the stream function-vorticity-pressure formulation of the Stokes equations posed on a two-dimensional domain and its discretization by finite elements. They derive some error estimates; although these derivations do not explicitly require convexity of the domain, they do require high regularity of the (exact) solution of the Stokes equations (e.g., velocity in \(H^ k\) and pressure in \(H^{k - 2}\) for \(k \geq 4\)).
