Abstract

The method is based on the folllowing techniques: a mixed finite element approximation acting on a pressure-velocity formulation of the problem, a time discretization by finite differences for the unsteady problem, and an iterative method using - via a convenient nonlinear least square formulation - a conjugate gradient algorithm with scaling ; the scaling makes a fundamental use of an efficient Stokes solver associated to the above mixed finite element approximation. The results of numerical experiments are presented and analyzed. (from authors abstract)
