We consider non-conforming discretizations of the stationary Stokes equation in three spatial dimensions by Crouzeix-Raviart type elements. The original definition in the seminal paper by M. Crouzeix and P.-A. Raviart in 1973 is implicit…
The Crouzeix-Raviart triangular finite elements are $\inf$-$\sup$ stable for the Stokes equations for any mesh with at least one interior vertex. This result affirms a {\em conjecture of Crouzeix-Falk} from 1989 for $p=3$. Our proof applies…

Most classical finite element schemes for the (Navier-)Stokes equations are neither pressure-robust, nor are they inf-sup stable on general anisotropic triangulations. A lack of pressure-robustness may lead to large velocity errors,…
The paper shows an inf-sup stability property for several well-known 2D and 3D Stokes elements on triangulations which are not fitted to a given smooth or polygonal domain. The property implies stability and optimal error estimates for a…
We present a finite element method for Stokes equations using the Crouzeix-Raviart element for the velocity and the continuous linear element for the pressure. We show that the inf-sup condition is satisfied for this pair. Two numerical…

We construct several stable finite element pairs for the Stokes problem on barycentric refinements in arbitrary dimensions. A key feature of the spaces is that the divergence maps the discrete velocity space onto the the discrete pressure…
The velocity solution of the incompressible Stokes equations is not affected by changes of the right hand side data in form of gradient fields. Most mixed methods do not replicate this property in the discrete formulation due to a…
In this study, the nonconforming finite elements of order two and order three are constructed and exploited for the Stokes problem. The moments of order up to $k-1$ ($k=2,3$) on all the facets of the tetrahedron are used for DoFs (degrees…
