Abstract

A wave-like equation based method for the numerical solution of the Navier-Stokes equations modeling incompressible viscous flow was introduced nearly twenty years ago. From its inception to nowadays it has been applied successfully to the numerical solution of two and three dimensional flow problems for incompressible Newtonian and non-Newtonian viscous fluids, in flow regions with fixed or moving boundaries. The main goals of this article are: (i) To recall the foundations of the wave-like equation methodology, and (ii) to review some typical viscous flow problems where it has been applied successfully.
