A Quadratic Equal-Order Stabilized Method for Stokes Problem Based on Two Local Gauss Integrations

摘要

In this article, we analyze a quadratic equal-order stabilized finite element approximation for the incompressible Stokes equations based on two local Gauss integrations. Our method only offsets the discrete pressure gradient space by the residual of the simple and symmetry term at element level to circumvent the inf-sup condition. And this method does not require specification of a stabilization parameter, and always leads to a symmetric linear system. Furthermore, this method is unconditionally stable, and can be implemented at the element level with minimal additional cost. Finally, we give some numerical simulations to show good stability and accuracy properties of the method.
