Hi developers and users,

Seems I sent to wrong address last email, sorry for that.

I tried to expand the tensor form of N-S to the general PDEs as shown in the attached picture, is this same to the governing equation that ex13 used? please correct me if i am wrong. Is any book introduce deriving the nonlinear PDEs to the element equations? nonlinear terms in the equation bother me a lot, I don't know how to derive their weak forms.

Another question is about the constant \theta in the ex13, which is equal to one in the equation, the description goes like:

"Find out what the timestep size parameter is from the system, and the value of theta for the theta method. We use implicit Euler (theta=1) for this simulation even though it is only first-order accurate in time. "

can I understand it as the coordinator for the Crank-Nicolson method, theta =0.5 means the classic Crank-Nicolson, theta = 0/1 means pure forward/backward Euler method? There are no \mu and \rho in the assemble equation, so both parameters are evaluated one?

Many thanks !

Liang

Hi developers and users,

I am looking at the nonlinear system of equations and want to borrow some ideas from ex13, while the finite element equations in the assemble function make me a little confused because I am not familiar with the Stokes' equation, does any fluids expert might send me a image format PDEs of that system? or give a link which is exact same to the equations in ex13. I have looked at the Wikipedia but not make sure which equations are belong to the case of ex13. Thanks a lot!
