For the discretization of the convective term in the Navier-Stokes equations (NSEs), the commonly used convective formulation (CONV) does not preserve the energy if the divergence constraint is only weakly enforced. In this paper, we apply the skew-symmetrization technique in [B. Cockburn, G. Kanschat and D. Schötzau, Math. Comp., 74 (2005), pp. 1067-1095] to conforming finite element methods, which restores energy conservation for CONV. The crucial idea is to replace the discrete advective…

A new local discontinuous Galerkin method for the incompressible stationary Navier-Stokes equations is proposed and analyzed, which confirms the independence of the number of fixed point iterations with respect to the discretization parameters and works well for a wide range of Reynolds numbers.

Taking into account the loss of regularity suffered by the solution of the Navier–Stokes equations at the initial time in the absence of nonlocal compatibility conditions of the data, error bounds of order O(h2)$\mathcal O( h^{2})$ in space are proved.
