A posteriori analysis of Chorin-Temam scheme for Stokes equations


Abstract in English

We consider Chorin-Temam scheme (the simplest pressure-correction projection method) for the time-discretization of an unstationary Stokes problem. Inspired by the analyses of the Backward Euler scheme performed by C.Bernardi and R.Verfurth, we derive a posteriori estimators for the error on the velocity gradient in L2 norm. Our invesigation is supported by numerical experiments.
