Wait, what? :-) I am skimming most threads of course. Sorry I didn't
reply yet. Are any questions left after JP's reply?

Precisely. Take a look at the strong form after "Therefore, we arrive
at the linearized system:" and multiply with a test function v and
integrate by parts where needed. "Present_*" is the u^k and p^k (our
current best guess or the linearization point, or whatever you want to
call it), delta u^k is the unknown, and v is the test function. We
basically linearize
(u. \nabla)u, v
as
(b.\nabla) u, v + (u.\nabla) b, v

It is left to right by definition (left-to-right associativity), but I
agree that we could be clearer.
