Specially, we focus on the numerical solution of the Stokes and Navier-Stokes equations and the fulfillment of the inf-sup conditions, specifically by computing the Brezzi and Babuška inf-sup constants. The Isogeometric Taylor-Hood spaces are presented and the stability of the Stokes and Navier-Stokes equations has been numerically tested in a variety of settings, including smooth NURBS basis functions and the multiple patches case.Isogeometric AnalysisStokes equationsNavier-Stokes equationsNumerical approximationStabilityIsogeometric Analysis for Navier-Stokes equationsstudent work::master thesis
