The G method for heterogeneous anisotropic diffusion on general meshes
In the present work we introduce a new family of cell-centered Finite Volume schemes for anisotropic and heterogeneous diffusion operators inspired by the MPFA L method. A very general framework for the convergence study of finite volume methods is provided and then used to establish the convergence of the new method. Fairly general meshes are covered and a computable sufficient criterion for coercivity is provided. In order to guarantee consistency in the presence of heterogeneous diffusivity,...
