文摘This paper focuses on the low-order nonconforming rectangular and quadrilateral finite elements approximation of incompressible flow.Beyond the previous research works,we propose a general strategy to construct the basis functions.Under several specific constraints,the optimal error estimates are obtained,i.e.,the first order accuracy of the velocities in H1-norm and the pressure in L2-norm,as well as the second order accuracy of the velocities in L2-norm.Besides,we clarify the differences between rectangular and quadrilateral finite element approximation.In addition,we give several examples to verify the validity of our error estimates.
