Fully compositional and thermal reservoir simulation

Fully compositional and thermal reservoir simulation capabilities are important in oil exploration and production. There are significant resources in existing wells and in heavy oil, oil sands, and deep-water reservoirs. This article has two main goals: (1) to clearly identify chemical engineering sub-problems within reservoir simulation that the PSE community can potentially make contributions...

Towards a scalable fully-implicit fully-coupled resistive MHD formulation with stabilized FE methods

This paper explores the development of a scalable, nonlinear, fully-implicit stabilized unstructured finite element (FE) capability for 2D incompressible (reduced) resistive MHD. The discussion considers the implementation of a stabilized FE formulation in context of a fully-implicit time integration and direct-to-steady-state solution capability. The nonlinear solver strategy employs Newton-Kr...

Fully relativistic implicit particle-in-cell simulation scheme

We formulate the relativistic implicit time-dependent Vlasov-Maxwell’s system based on the simplified implicit Maxwell solver. An implicit finite difference algorithm is developed to solve the Maxwell’s equations and equations of motion without coupling to each other, and is implemented to a newly developed 1d3v code. We test the code against the two stream instability, ion acoustic wave dampin...
