Verification benchmarks for single-phase flow in three-dimensional fractured porous media

This paper presents the basic concepts and the module structure of the Distributed and Unified Numerics Environment and reflects on recent developments and general changes that happened since the release of the first Dune version in 2007 and the main papers describing that state Bastian etal. (2008a, 2008b). This discussion is accompanied with a description of various advanced features, such as coupling of domains and cut cells, grid modifications such as adaptation and moving domains, high order discretizations and node level performance, non-smooth multigrid methods, and multiscale methods. A brief discussion on current and future development directions of the framework concludes the paper.

Enzymatically induced calcium carbonate precipitation (EICP) is an emerging engineered mineralization method similar to others such as microbially induced calcium carbonate precipitation (MICP). EICP is advantageous compared to MICP as the enzyme is still active at conditions where microbes, e.g., Sporosarcina pasteurii, commonly used for MICP, cannot grow. Especially, EICP expands the applicability of ureolysis-induced calcium carbonate mineral precipitation to higher temperatures, enabling its use in leakage mitigation deeper in the subsurface than previously thought to be possible with MICP. A new conceptual and numerical model for EICP is presented. The model was calibrated and validated using quasi-1D column experiments designed to provide the necessary data for model calibration and can now be used to assess the potential of EICP applications for leakage mitigation and other subsurface modifications.

A Numerical Model for Enzymatically Induced Calcium Carbonate Precipitation

We present version 3 of the open-source simulator for flow and transport processes in porous media DuMux. DuMux is based on the modular C++ framework Dune (Distributed and Unified Numerics Environment) and is developed as a research code with a focus on modularity and reusability. We describe recent efforts in improving the transparency and efficiency of the development process and community-building, as well as efforts towards quality assurance and reproducible research. In addition to a major redesign of many simulation components in order to facilitate setting up complex simulations in DuMux, version 3 introduces a more consistent abstraction of finite volume schemes. Finally, the new framework for multi-domain simulations is described, and three numerical examples demonstrate its flexibility.
