Nonsmooth exact penalization second-order methods for incompressible bi-viscous fluids (Q2057230): Difference between revisions

The authots consider the exact penalization of the incompressibility condition \(\operatorname{div}(\mathbf{u}) = 0\) for the velocity field of a bi-viscous fluid in terms of the \(L^1\)-norm. This results in a nonsmooth optimization problem for which a solution method relying on a steepest descent direction and extra generalized second-order information associated to the nonsmooth term is provided. The divergence-free property is enforced by the descent direction proposed by the method without the need of build-in divergence-free approximation schemes. An inexact penalization approach relying on the \(L^2\)-norm is also considered.
