A Nonlinear Mixed Finite Eelement Method for a Degenerate Parabolic Equation Arising in Flow in Porous Media

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors consider the problem from the point of view of optimal approximation and develop a mixed variational form that respects the known minimal regularity, and then develop and analyze two versions of a mixed finite element approximation, a simpler semidiscrete (time-continuous) version and a fully discrete version.
Journal ArticleDOI

A phase-field method for propagating fluid-filled fractures coupled to a surrounding porous medium

TL;DR: The pressurized phase- field framework is extended to fluid-filled fractures in which the pressure is computed from a generalized parabolic diffraction problem, and the phase-field variable is used as an indicator function to combine reservoir and fracture pressure.
Journal ArticleDOI

A time-discretization procedure for a mixed finite element approximation of miscible displacement in porous media

TL;DR: In this paper, a procede efficace de discretisation en temps for un systeme decrivant le deplacement miscible d'un fluide incompressible par un autre en milieu poreux is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Two-Grid Finite Difference Scheme for Nonlinear Parabolic Equations

TL;DR: In this paper, a two-level finite difference scheme for the approximation of nonlinear parabolic equations is presented, in which the full nonlinear problem is solved on a "coarse" grid of size H and an appropriate interpolation operator is used to provide values of the coarse grid solution on the fine grid in terms of superconvergent node points.
Journal ArticleDOI

Symmetric and Nonsymmetric Discontinuous Galerkin Methods for Reactive Transport in Porous Media

TL;DR: A parabolic lift technique for SIPG is developed, which leads to h-optimal and nearly p-Optimal error estimates in the L2(L2) and negative norms, and numerical results validate these estimates.
