Resumen de Combined Mixed Finite Element and Finite Volume for flow and transport in porous media

Brahim Amaziane, M. El Ossmani

• This paper is concerned with numerical methods for the modeling of flow and transport of contaminant in porous media. The numerical methods feature the mixed finite element method over triangles as a solver to the Darcy flow equation, and a conservative finite volume scheme for the concentration equation. A series of numerical examples demonstrates the effectiveness of the methodology for a coupled system which includes an elliptic equation and a diffusion-convection equation arising in modeling of flow and transport in heterogeneous porous media.
