  • We present analysis and some computational methods for boundary optimal and feedback control problems for Navier-Stokes equations. We use one example to illustrate our methodology and ideas which are applicable to general control problems for Navier-Stokes equations. First, we discuss the existence of optimal solutions and derive an optimality system of equations from which an optimal solution may be computed. Then we present a gradient type iterative method. Finally, we present some numerical results.

  • The homogenization of non-stationary Navier-Stokes equations on anisotropic heterogeneous media is investigated. The effective coefficients of the homogenized equations are found. It is pointed out that the resulting homogenized limit systems are of the same form of non-stationary Navier-Stokes equations with suitable coefficients. Also, steady Stokes equations as cell problems are identified. A compactness theorem is proved in order to deal with time dependent homogenization problems.

  • In this paper we propose and analyze two a posteriori error estimators for the stabilized $P_1/P_1$ finite element discretization of the Stokes equations. These error estimators are computed by solving local Poisson or Stokes problems on elements of the underlying triangulation. We establish their asymptotic exactness with respect to the velocity error under certain conditions on the triangulation and the regularity of the exact solution.

  • Finite element approximation solutions of the optimal control problems for stochastic Stokes equations with the forcing term perturbed by white noise are considered. Error estimates are established for the fully coupled optimality system using Brezzi-Rappaz-Raviart theory. Numerical examples are also presented to examine our theoretical results.

  • In this paper, the unsteady Stokes problem is considered and also the pressure-correction method for the problem is described. At a fixed time level, we reduce the problem to two symmetric positive definite problems which depend on a time step parameter. Linear systems that arise from the problems are large, sparse, symmetric, positive definite and ill-conditioned as the time step tends to zero. Preconditioned problems based on an additive Schwarz method for solving the symmetric positive definite problems are derived and preconditioners are defined implicitly. It will be shown that the rate of convergence is independent of the mesh parameters as well as the time step size.

  • A finite element code for the numerical solution of the Navier-Stokes equation is parallelized by vertex-oriented domain decomposition. To accelerate the convergence of iterative solvers like conjugate gradient method, parallel block ILU, iterative block ILU, and distributed ILU methods are tested as parallel preconditioners. The effectiveness of the algorithms has been investigated when P1P1 finite element discretization is used for the parallel solution of the Navier-Stokes equation. Two-dimensional and three-dimensional Laplace equations are calculated to estimate the speedup of the preconditioners. Calculation domain is partitioned by one- and multi-dimensional partitioning methods in structured grid and by METIS library in unstructured grid. For the domain-decomposed parallel computation of the Navier-Stokes equation, we have solved three-dimensional lid-driven cavity and natural convection problems in a cube as benchmark problems using a parallelized fractional 4-step finite element method. The speedup for each parallel preconditioning method is to be compared using upto 64 processors.

  • The temperature preconditioning is applied to the Navier-Stokes equations. Also, a new concept of diffusion Mach numbers is introduced to modify the reference Mach number for the Navier-Stokes equations. Flows over a circular cylinder were calculated at different Reynolds numbers. It is shown that the temperature preconditioning improves the convergence characteristics of Navier-Stokes equations. Also, it is shown that the modified reference Mach number alleviates the convergence problems at locally low speed regions.

  • We describe a parallel implementation of a relaxed Hermitian and skew-Hermitian splitting preconditioner for the numerical solution of saddle point problems arising from the steady incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. The equations are linearized by the Picard iteration and discretized with the finite element and finite difference schemes on two-dimensional and three-dimensional domains. We report strong scalability results for up to 32 cores.

  • We consider the Newton's method for an direct solver of the optimal control problems of the Navier-Stokes equations. We show that the finite element solutions of the optimal control problem for Stoke equations may be chosen as the initial guess for the quadratic convergence of Newton's algorithm applied to the optimal control problem for the Navier-Stokes equations provided there are sufficiently small mesh size h and the moderate Reynold's number.
