Heterogeneous Domain Decomposition of Surface and Porous Media Flow
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a heterogeneous domain decomposition approach to the Richards equation coupled with surface water flow. Assuming piecewise constant soil parameters in the constitutive equations for saturation and relative permeability, we present a novel domain decomposition approch to the Richards equation involving on fast and robust subdomain solver based on optimization techniques. The coupling of ground and surface water is resolved by a Dirichlet–Neumann-type iteration.

Geometric Multigrid for Darcy and Brinkman models of flows in highly heterogeneous porous media: A numerical study
We apply geometric multigrid methods for the finite element approximation of flow problems governed by Darcy and Brinkman systems used in modeling highly heterogeneous porous media. The method is based on divergence-conforming discontinuous Galerkin methods and overlapping, patch based domain decomposition smoothers. We show in benchmark experiments that the method is robust with respect to mes...
متن کاملMultiscale mass conservative domain decomposition preconditioners for elliptic problems on irregular grids
Multiscale methods can in many cases be viewed as special types of domain decomposition preconditioners. The localisation approximations introduced within the multiscale framework are dependent upon both the heterogeneity of the reservoir and the structure of the computational grid. While previous works on multiscale control volume methods have focused on heterogeneous elliptic problems on regu...
متن کاملAn experimental study on hydraulic behavior of free-surface radial flow in coarse-grained porous media
The equations of fluids in porous media are very useful in designing the rockfill and diversion dams, gabions, breakwaters and ground water reserves. Researches have been showed that the Forchheimer equation is not sufficient for the analysis of hydraulic behavior of free-surface radial flows; because, in these flows, in addition to the hydraulic gradient and velocity, the variable of radius is...
متن کاملDispersion of Torsional Surface Wave in a Pre-Stressed Heterogeneous Layer Sandwiched Between Anisotropic Porous Half-Spaces Under Gravity
The study of surface waves in a layered media has their viable application in geophysical prospecting. This paper presents an analytical study on the dispersion of torsional surface wave in a pre-stressed heterogeneous layer sandwiched between a pre-stressed anisotropic porous semi-infinite medium and gravitating anisotropic porous half-space. The non-homogeneity within the intermediate layer a...
متن کاملNumerical Simulation and Estimation of the Transvers Macrodispersivity Coefficient of Aqueous Phase (Miscible) Contaminants of Salt Water in a Heterogeneous and Homogeneous Porous Media
Deterioration of groundwater resources in coastal regions due to the progression of saline water in aquifers in these regions is currently one of the important issues in providing water needs in these areas. In coastal regions, saline water enters the aquifer from below in shape of wedge. Due to the difference in the density between fresh and salty water, an interface zone forms between two flu...
