title: A note on discontinuous Galerkin divergence-free solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations creator: Cockburn, Bernardo creator: Kanschat, Guido creator: Schötzau, Dominik subject: ddc-510 subject: 510 Mathematics description: We present a class of discontinuous Galerkin methods for the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations yielding exactly divergence-free solutions. Exact incompressibility is achieved by using divergence-conforming velocity spaces for the approximation of the velocities. The resulting methods are locally conservative, energy-stable, and optimally convergent. We present a set of numerical tests that confirm these properties. The results of this note naturally expand the work in a previous publication on Navier-Stokes equations date: 2006 type: Preprint type: info:eu-repo/semantics/preprint type: NonPeerReviewed format: application/pdf identifier: https://archiv.ub.uni-heidelberg.de/volltextserverhttps://archiv.ub.uni-heidelberg.de/volltextserver/6334/1/paper.pdf identifier: DOI:10.11588/heidok.00006334 identifier: urn:nbn:de:bsz:16-heidok-63340 identifier: Cockburn, Bernardo ; Kanschat, Guido ; Schötzau, Dominik (2006) A note on discontinuous Galerkin divergence-free solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations.
