摘要
We consider the steady state Stokes equations, describing low speed flow and derive estimates of the solution for various types of boundary conditions. We formulate the boundary conditions in a new way, such that the boundary value problem becomes non-singular. By using a difference approximation on a staggered grid we are able to derive a non-singular approximation in a direct way. Furthermore, we derive the same type of estimates as for the continuous case. Numerical experiments confirm the theoretical results.
