The velocity-vorticity formulation on staggered grid: A fractional step method. (La formulation vitesse-tourbillon en maillage décalé: Une méthode de projection.) (French. Abridged English version) Zbl 0881.76065
Summary: We show that the solution of the Navier-Stokes equations by using the velocity-vorticity formulation on a staggered grid, where the velocity is computed by means of the solution of a Cauchy-Riemann problem, may be interpreted as a fractional step method.
