The stress-displacement-pressure formulation of the elasticity problem may suffer from two types of numerical instabilities related to the finite element interpolation of the unknowns. The first is ...

SIAM Journal on Numerical Analysis, Vol. 35, No. 2 (Apr., 1998), pp. 560-571 (12 pages) A new mixed finite element method is formulated for the Stokes equations, in ...

Finite Element Methods (FEM) have emerged as a pivotal computational tool in the simulation of incompressible flows and the Navier-Stokes equations. By discretising the domain, these techniques offer ...
