An error analysis for some three-dimensional mixed finite element methods for incompressible elasticity and incompressible viscous flow is presented. A continuous pressure approximation leads to a smaller system of linear equations to be solved and is thus advantageous, especially for three-dimensional systems where iterative techniques are employed for solving finite element equations. The three-dimensional analysis in case of tetrahedral elements corresponds to two-dimensional analysis. The analysis for hexahedral elements is, however, more complicated.
