Mathematical study of a petroleum-engineering scheme

Robert Eymard, Raphaèle Herbin, Anthony Michel (2003)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

Models of two phase flows in porous media, used in petroleum engineering, lead to a system of two coupled equations with elliptic and parabolic degenerate terms, and two unknowns, the saturation and the pressure. For the purpose of their approximation, a coupled scheme, consisting in a finite volume method together with a phase-by-phase upstream weighting scheme, is used in the industrial setting. This paper presents a mathematical analysis of this coupled scheme, first showing that it satisfies...

Modelling and Mathematical Analysis of the Glass Eel Migration in the Adour River Estuary

M. Odunlami, G. Vallet (2012)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

In this paper we are interested in a mathematical model of migration of grass eels in an estuary. We first revisit a previous model proposed by O. Arino and based on a degenerate convection-diffusion equation of parabolic-hyperbolic type with time-varying subdomains. Then, we propose an adapted mathematical framework for this model, we prove a result of existence of a weak solution and we propose some numerical simulations.

Multicomponent flow in a porous medium. Adsorption and Soret effect phenomena : local study and upscaling process

Serge Blancher, René Creff, Gérard Gagneux, Bruno Lacabanne, François Montel, David Trujillo (2001)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

Our aim here is to study the thermal diffusion phenomenon in a forced convective flow. A system of nonlinear parabolic equations governs the evolution of the mass fractions in multicomponent mixtures. Some existence and uniqueness results are given under suitable conditions on state functions. Then, we present a numerical scheme based on a “mixed finite element” method adapted to a finite volume scheme, of which we give numerical analysis. In a last part, we apply an homogenization technique to...
