Abstract:

This paper is concerned with some numerical computation on viscoelastic non-Newtonian fluids. Viscoelastic non-Newtonian fluids can be viewed as the intermediate states between the fluids and the solids. As viscoelastic non-Newtonian fluids is complex, it is very difficult to numerically solve the problem. In this paper, we combine the defect correction method and the adaptive method to study linearized viscoelastic fluid flow. A reliable a posteriori error estimate is derived for the adaptive defect correction method. Numerical experiments are provided which ill-ustrate the utility of the resulting adaptive defect correction method for linearized viscoelastic fluid flow. The obtained results can be viewed as the basis for further research on more complex viscoelastic non-Newtonian fluids.

Key words: linearized viscoelastic fluid flow, finite element method, adaptive defect correction method, posteriori error estimate
