In this paper, we consider the generalized Forchheimer flows for slightly compressible fluids in porous media. Using Muskat's and Ward's general form of Forchheimer equations, we describe the flow of a single-phase fluid in $\mathbb R^d, d\ge 2$ by a nonlinear degenerate system of density and momentum. A mixed finite element method is proposed for the approximation of the solution of the above system. The stability of the approximations are proved; the error estimates are derived for the numerical approximations for both continuous and discrete time procedures. The continuous dependence of numerical solutions on physical parameters are demonstrated. Experimental studies are presented regarding convergence rates and showing the dependence of the solution on the physical parameters.
In this paper, we study the "a posteriori" error estimate corresponding to the Brinkman-Darcy-Forchheimer problem. We introduce the variational formulation discretised by using the finite element method. Then, we establish an "a posteriori" error estimation with two types of error indicators related to the discretization and to the linearization. Finally, numerical investigations are shown and discussed.
This paper develops the a priori analysis of a mixed finite element method for the filtration of an incompressible fluid through a non-deformable saturated porous medium with heterogeneous permeability. Flows are governed by the Brinkman--Forchheimer and Darcy equations in the more and less permeable regions, respectively, and the corresponding transmission conditions are given by mass conservation and continuity of momentum. We consider the standard mixed formulation in the Brinkman--Forchheimer domain and the dual-mixed one in the Darcy region, and we impose the continuity of the normal velo…
In this paper we propose and analyze a uniformly robust staggered DG method for the unsteady Darcy-Forchheimer-Brinkman problem. Our formulation is based on velocity gradient-velocity-pressure and the resulting scheme can be flexibly applied to fairly general polygonal meshes. We relax the tangential continuity for velocity, which is the key ingredient in achieving the uniform robustness. We present well-posedness and error analysis for both the semi-discrete scheme and the fully discrete scheme, and the theories indicate that the error estimates for velocity are independent of pressure. Sever…
This paper deals with the Darcy-Forchheimer problem with two kinds of boundary conditions. We discretize the system by using the finite element methods and we propose two iterative schemes to solve the discrete problems. The well-posedness and the convergence of the corresponding iterative problems are then proven. Finally, several numerical experiments are performed to validate the proposed numerical schemes.
In this work we derive a posteriori error estimates for the convection-diffusion-reaction equation coupled with the Darcy-Forchheimer problem by a nonlinear external source depending on the concentration of the fluid. We introduce the variational formulation associated to the problem, and discretize it by using the finite element method. We prove optimal a posteriori errors with two types of calculable error indicators. The first one is linked to the linearization and the second one to the discretization. Then we find upper and lower error bounds under additional regularity assumptions on the …

In this paper, we develop a discretization for the non-linear coupled model of classical Darcy-Forchheimer flow in deformable porous media, an extension of the quasi-static Biot equations. The continuous model exhibits a generalized gradient flow structure, identifying the dissipative character of the physical system. The considered mixed finite element discretization is compatible with this structure, which gives access to a simple proof for the existence, uniqueness, and stability of discrete approximations. Moreover, still within the framework, the discretization allows for the development …
This work deals with the a posteriori error estimates for the Darcy-Forchheimer problem. We introduce the corresponding variational formulation and discretize it by using the finite-element method. A posteriori error estimate with two types of computable error indicators is showed. The first one is linked to the linearization and the second one to the discretization. Finally, numerical computations are performed to show the effectiveness of the error indicators.
In this paper we develop a staggered discontinuous Galerkin method for the Stokes and Darcy-Forchheimer problems coupled with the \Red{Beavers-Joseph-Saffman} conditions. The method is defined by imposing staggered continuity for all the variables involved and the interface conditions are enforced by switching the roles of the variables met on the interface, which eliminate the hassle of introducing additional variables. This method can be flexibly applied to rough grids such as the highly distorted grids and the polygonal grids. In addition, the method allows nonmatching grids on the interfac…
In this article, we present an efficient deep learning method called coupled deep neural networks (CDNNs) for coupled physical problems. Our method compiles the interface conditions of the coupled PDEs into the networks properly and can be served as an efficient alternative to the complex coupled problems. To impose energy conservation constraints, the CDNNs utilize simple fully connected layers and a custom loss function to perform the model training process as well as the physical property of the exact solution. The approach can be beneficial for the following reasons: Firstly, we sampled ra…
In this paper, we propose a multiscale method for the Darcy-Forchheimer model in highly heterogeneous porous media. The problem is solved in the framework of generalized multiscale finite element methods (GMsFEM) combined with a multipoint flux mixed finite element (MFMFE) method. %In the MFMFE methods, appropriate mixed finite element spaces and suitable quadrature rules are employed, which allow for local velocity elimination and lead to a cell-centered system for the pressure. We consider the MFMFE method that utilizes the lowest order Brezzi-Douglas-Marini ($\textrm{BDM}_1$) mixed finite e…
Numerical treatment of the problem of two-dimensional viscous fluid flow in and around circular porous inclusions is considered. The mathematical model is described by Navier-Stokes equation in the free flow domain $Ω_f$ and nonlinear convective Darcy-Brinkman-Forchheimer equations in porous subdomains $Ω_p$. It is well-known that numerical solutions of the problems in such heterogeneous domains require a very fine computational mesh that resolve inclusions on the grid level. The size alteration of the relevant system requires model reduction techniques. Here, we present a multiscale model red…
