Stability analysis and error estimates of a projection based variational multiscale method for Oseen equations in moving domains

Abstract

Stability and error estimate for the Oseen equations in a projection based variational setup has been derived in this paper. The use of Geometric Conservation Law (GCL) provides unconditional stability whereas without using GCL we have a conditional scheme which imposes restriction on the time step. Further using the stability results derived, we make the first order error estimate using a backward Euler time discretization scheme.
