A Sequential State Variable Approach to the Control of Navier-Stokes’ Equation

Abstract

This paper dealt with the solution to an optimization problem for the Navier-Stokes’ equation using the finite element method. The finite element method is a numerical method which can be used for the accurate solution of a complex boundary-value problem and other problems in Engineering. It was discovered that as the viscosity increases the velocity increases and consequently increase in external forces. The flow is symmetric about the co-ordinate axis.
