Stokes problem with the possibility of controlling the velocity in a
L-shaped domain
Omar Chakrone, Okacha Diyer, Driss Sbibih
abstract: The movement is studied from a viscous and incompressible homogeneous fluid which crosses a field of the channel in the form of L, with the possibility
to exert pressure of known difference between two opposite edges. We extend previous work in [1] which studies a problem of Stokes in the stationary case and with
one parameter that characterizes the pressure difference between two sides in a specific domain (symmetric channel). We show existence, unicity and regularity of the
solution of an evolution problem with four parameters that characterize the pressure
difference between two opposite sides of our field.
Key Words: Stokes problem, Regularity of the solution, weak solution.

Let Ω ⊂ R be a bounded domain with boundary ∂Ω = Γ = i=1 Γi , where
Γ1 = {0}×[0, 1], Γ2 = {0}×[1, 3], Γ3 = [0, 1]×{3}, Γ4 = {1}×[1, 3], Γ5 = [1, 5]×{1},
Γ6 = {5} × [0, 1], Γ7 = [1, 5] × {0} and Γ8 = [0, 1] × {0}, see Figure 1. Given four
real numbers λ1 , λ2 , λ3 and λ4 , we consider the problem:
u = (u1 , u2 ) ∈ V1 such that

As applications of this problem, we cite the different types of flows for example
see [2,3]. This problem was studied by C. Amrouche, M. Batchi and J. Batina in
the stationary case with only one parameter see [1], we extend the preceding work
to a problem of evolution with four parameters. Our aim is, in first time to prove
the existence, uniqueness and regularity of the solution, second time we show the
equivalence between the variational problem, where the notion of pressure does
not appear explicitly, and classic problem which highlights the pressure and these
differences between the opposite sides of our field. We cite also a variety of works
in the stationary case see [2,4].
This paper is organized as follows. In Section 2, we give preliminaries. In
Section 3, we establish existence, unicity and regularity of the solution. In Section 4,
we prove the equivalence between our variational problem and the classical problem
associated.
2. Preliminaries
Let us denote by V the closing of ϑ in (H 1 (Ω))2 . We consider the following Banach spaces L2 (0, T ; V ) and C([0, T ]; H) with the norms kukL2(0,T ;V ) =

Proof: Let ϕ ∈ D(]a, b[), we have a hu′ (t), viϕ(t)dt = a hu′ (t)ϕ(t), vidt. Since
u′ ∈ L2 (a, b; V ′ ), we deduce that the function t → hu′ (t), vi is in L2 (a, b) for all
v ∈V.
In the same way, we have

3. Existence, uniqueness and regularity of solution
Theorem 3.1. If the solution of the problem (S1 ) exists, it is necessarily unique.
Proof: Let u1 and u2 be two solutions of the problem (S1 ). Put w = u1 − u2 ,
(∂t w, v) + ((w, v)) = 0 ∀v ∈ V1 and w(0) = 0,
where (∂t w, v) =

We are looking for an approximate solution (um ) of the form:

where {wi } is a Hilbertienne basis of H and gi ∈ C([0, T ]), gi (0) = gi0 = (u0 , wi ).

is the unique solution of the problem
u ∈ V ; ((u, v)) = (f, v) ∀v ∈ V.
We have the following results: ψ(wi ) = αi wi for all i ≥ 1, all the eigenvalues are
strictly positive and αi → 0 when i → ∞, {wi } is an orthogonal system in V and
we have ((wi , wj )) = α1i δ ij , where δ ij is the kronocker symbol. We obtain

which admits a unique solution. Consequently um =

gi (t)wi is the solution of

the approximate problem and in the same way as previously, we show the unicity
of the solution um .
Theorem 3.2. If u0 ∈ V1 , the approximate solution um satisfies
there exist c, c′ > 0 such that ku′m kL2 (0,T ;H) ≤ c and kum kC([0,T ];V ) ≤ c′ .
Proof: The function um (x, t) =
