چکیده (انگلیسی):

A fully discrete penalty finite element method is presented for the two-dimensional time dependent Navier-Stokes equations, where the time discretization is based on the Euler implicit/explicit scheme with some implicit linear terms and an explicit nonlinear term, and the finite element spatial discretization is based on the P1b-P1 element pair, which satisfies the discrete inf-sup condition. This method allows us to separate the computation of the velocity from the computation of the pressure with a larger time-step size Δt, so that the numerical velocity unєh and the pressure pnєh are easily computed. An optimal error estimate of the numerical velocity and the pressure is provided for the fully discrete penalty finite element method when the penalty parameter є, the time-step size Δt and the mesh size h satisfy the following stability conditions: єc1 ≤ 1, Δtk1 ≤ 1 and h2 ≤ 1Δt, respectively, for some positive constants c1, k1 and 1. Finally, some numerical tests to confirm the theoretical results of the penalty finite element method are provided.
