An exactly divergence-free finite element method for non-isothermal flow problems

In this thesis the exactly divergence-free finite element method developed by Cockburn, Scheotzau and Kanschat in [13] and [14] is studied. This method is first reviewed in the context of Stokes problem. An interior penalty discontinuous Galerkin approach is formulated and analysed in the unified fr...
