“…In this method, the nonlinear equations with an added artificial viscosity term on a finite element grid are solved and these solutions are corrected on the same grid using a linearized defect-correction technique. Due to its good efficiency, there are many works devoted to this method, e.g., convection-diffusion equation [6], adaptive refinement for convection-diffusion problems [2], adaptive defect correction methods for viscous incompressible flow [7], two-parameter defect-correction method for computation of steady-state viscoelastic fluid flow [5], variational methods for elliptic boundary value problems [8], defect-correction parameter-uniform numerical method for a singularly perturbed convection-diffusion problem [12], convection-dominated flow [18], finite volume local defect correction method for solving the transport equation [23], singular initial value problems [22], the time-dependent Navier-Stokes equations [24,25,33], the stationary Navier-Stokes equation [26], second order defect correction scheme [31], finite element eigenvalues with applications to quantum chemistry [37], common structural principle of the defect-correction technique [38] and so on. In [8], a method which makes it possible to apply the idea of iterated defect correction to finite element methods was given.…”
