Abstract: In this paper, the finite element Galerkin method is applied to the equations of motion arising in the Kelvin-Voigt viscoelastic fluid flow model, when the forcing function is in Linfty(L2). Some a priori estimates for the exact solution, which are valid uniformly in time as tmapstoinfty and even uniformly in the retardation time kappa as kappamapsto0, are derived. It is shown that the semidiscrete method admits a global attractor. Further, with the help of a priori bounds and Sobolev-Stokes projection, optimal error estimates for the velocity in Linfty(L2) and Linfty(H01)-norms and for the pressure in Linfty(L2)-norm are established. Since the constants involved in error estimates have an exponential growth in time, therefore, in the last part of the article, under certain uniqueness condition, the error bounds are established which are valid uniformly in time. Finally, some numerical experiments are conducted which confirm our theoretical findings.
