Dual-mixed finite element methods for the Navier-Stokes equations
ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis , Tome 47 (2013) no. 3, pp. 789-805.

A mixed finite element method for the Navier-Stokes equations is introduced in which the stress is a primary variable. The variational formulation retains the mathematical structure of the Navier-Stokes equations and the classical theory extends naturally to this setting. Finite element spaces satisfying the associated inf-sup conditions are developed.
