A hybrid mortar virtual element method for discrete fracture network simulations
The most challenging issue in performing underground flow simulations in Discrete Fracture Networks (DFN), is to effectively tackle the geometrical difficulties of the problem. In this work we put forward a new application of the Virtual Element Method combined with the Mortar method for domain decomposition: we exploit the flexibility of the VEM in handling polygonal meshes in order to easily ...

متن کاملA Generalized Mixed Hybrid Mortar Method for Solving Flow in Stochastic Discrete Fracture Networks
The simulation of flow in fractured media requires handling both a large number of fractures and a complex interconnecting network of these fractures. Networks considered in this paper are three-dimensional domains made up of two-dimensional fractures intersecting each other and randomly generated. Due to the stochastic generation of fractures, intersections can be highly intricate. The numeric...
متن کاملA Hybrid Mortar Finite Element Method for the Stokes Problem
In this paper, we consider the discretization of the Stokes problem on domain partitions with non-matching meshes. We propose a hybrid mortar method, which is motivated by a variational characterization of solutions of the corresponding interface problem. For the discretization of the subdomain problems, we utilize standard inf-sup stable finite element pairs. The introduction of additional unk...
متن کاملOn Simulations of Discrete Fracture Network Flows with an Optimization-Based Extended Finite Element Method
Following the approach introduced in [SIAM J. Sci. Comput., 35 (2013), pp. B487– B510], we consider the formulation of the problem of fluid flow in a system of fractures as a PDE constrained optimization problem, with discretization performed using suitable extended finite elements; the method allows independent meshes on each fracture, thus completely circumventing meshing problems usually rel...
