Abstract
An optimal adaptive multiscale finite element method(AMsFEM) for numerical solutions of flow problems modelled by the Oldroyd B model is developed. Complex flows experience instabilities due to a phenomena known as the high Weissenberg number problem. The stabilisers are terms in-cooperated into the variational formulation when applying the finite element method. For the selected few stabilisers, numerical experiments are performed to study the convergence of the solutions. These demonstrate that adaptive strategies reduce the computational load of flow simulation. A best performing combination of choice of stabiliser and adaptive strategy is suggested.
