Stability Analysis of the Crank-Nicolson Finite Element Method for the Navier-Stokes Equations Driven by Slip Boundary Conditions by M. Mbehou, M. S. Daoussa Haggar, H. Olei Tahar

“…The objective is to establish the well-posedness and stability of the numerical scheme in L2-norm and H1-norm for all positive time using the Crank-Nicholson scheme in time and the finite element approximation in space. The resulting variational structure dealing with is in the form of inequality, and obtaining H1-estimate is more involved because of the presence of the nondifferentiable term appearing at the boundary where slip occurs. …”
