Firstly, the multiplier in a convex set is introduced such that the variational inequality is equivalent to the variational identity. Moreover, the solution of the variational identity satisfies the saddle-point problem of the Lagrangian functional ζ. Subsequently, the Uzawa algorithm is proposed to solve the solution of the saddle-point problem. We show the convergence of the algorithm and obtain the convergence rate. Finally, we give the numerical results to verify the feasibility of the Uzawa algorithm.展开更多

A systematic way to find such a vector field is to introduce a non-smooth variational problem involving a L^∞-norm. To solve this problem from calculus of variations, we use a method relying on a well- chosen augmented Lagrangian functional and on a mixed finite element approximation. An Uzawa algorithm allows to decouple the differential operators from the nonlinearities introduced by the L^∞-norm, and leads to the solution of a sequence of Stokes-like systems and of an infinite family of local nonlinear problems. A simpler method, based on a L2- regularization is also considered. Numerical experiments are performed, making use of appropriate numerical integration techniques when non-smooth data are considered; they allow to compare the merits of the two approaches discussed in this article and to show the ability of the related methods at capturing L^∞bounded solutions.展开更多
