Summary

We deal with 2D flows of incompressible viscous fluids with higher Reynolds numbers. Galerkin Least Square technique of stabilization of the finite element method is modified to semi-GLS stabilization. Results of numerical experiments are presented. Positive as well as negative properties of stabilization are discussed, esp. the loss of accuracy is carefully traced, using a posteriori error estimates.
