向列相液晶流的模块grad-div稳定化有限元方法

Abstract

Abstract:

In this paper, we presents a modular grad-div stabilized finite element method for nematic liquid crystal flow, which adds to the backward Euler scheme a post precessing step. This method can penalize for lack of mass conservation but it does not increase computational time for increasing stabilized parameters. Moreover, error estimates for velocity and molecular orientation of the nematic liquid crystal flow are shown. Finally, the theoretical findings and numerical efficiency are verified by numerical experiments.

Key words: Nematic liquid crystal model, Modular grad-div stabilized method, Error estimates, Finite element method, Backward Euler scheme
