Hello all,

I'm trying to model viscous flow due to self-gravity in the interior of a 
partially molten asteroid, which existed in the early solar system.  I'm using 
an altered version of step-22, and everything works fine until I try to use an 
axisymmetric domain- specifically, a 2-D domain representing a solid of 
rotation around the y axis.  

Somehow, the pressure solution shows anomalies near r=0 and the div(u) = 0 
condition is not well-satisfied.  I think I have altered the system setup 
properly, modifying the divergence and the integration to reflect cylindrical 
coordinates, but something is still not right!  Have other people had 
experience in implementing the Stokes equations in axisymmetric coordinates?  
Is there an example somewhere you can point me to?

Thanks for any and all help!
Roger
