Abstract

Based on two-grid discretization, a new parallel finite element algorithm for the generalized Stokes problem is proposed and analyzed. Motivated by the observation that for a solution to the generalized Stokes problem, low frequency components can be approximated well by a relatively coarse grid and high frequency components can be computed on a fine grid, this algorithm first solves the generalized Stokes problem on a coarse grid, and then corrects the resulted residual by standard additive Schwarz method on a fine grid. Under some regular assumptions, error estimates of the approximate solutions are provided. Numerical results are also given to illustrate the effectiveness of the algorithm.
