Extraction method for Stokes Flow with jumps in the pressure

Numerical Analysis 2009-11-26 v1

Abstract

In this paper, we consider a stationary, constant viscosity, incompressible Stokes flow with singular forces along one or several interfaces. Assuming only the jumps of the pressure are present along the interface, we develop a new numerical scheme for such a problem. By constructing an approximate singular function and removing it, we can apply a standard finite element method to solve it. A main advantage of our scheme is that one can use a uniform grid. We observe optimal O(h)O(h) order for the pressure and O(h2)O(h^2) order for the velocity.
