After re-writing the problems in the form of variational inequalities, a fixed point strategy is used to show existence of solutions. Next we prove that the finite element approximations for the Stokes and Navier Stokes equations converge respectively to the solutions of each continuous problems. Finally, Uzawa’s algorithm is formulated and convergence of the procedure is shown, and numerical validation test is achieved.en© 2013 Institute for Scientific Computing and InformationStokes/Navier-Stokes equationsNonlinear slip boundary conditionsVariational inequalityFinite element methodError estimateUzawa’s algorithmArticle
