We propose a multiscale approach for a nonlinear Helmholtz problem with possible oscillations in the Kerr coefficient, the refractive index, and the diffusion coefficient. The method does not rely on structural assumptions on the coefficients and combines the multiscale technique known as Localized Orthogonal Decomposition with an adaptive iterative approximation of the nonlinearity. We rigorously analyze the method in terms of well-posedness and convergence properties based on suitable assumptions on the initial data and the discretization parameters. Numerical examples illustrate the theoretical error estimates and underline the practicability of the approach.
In this paper, we systemically review and compare two mixed multiscale finite element methods (MMsFEM) for multiphase transport in highly heterogeneous media. In particular, we will consider the mixed multiscale finite element method using limited global information, simply denoted by MMsFEM, and the mixed generalized multiscale finite element method (MGMsFEM) with residual driven online multiscale basis functions. Both methods are under the framework of mixed multiscale finite element methods, where the pressure equation is solved in the coarse grid with carefully constructed multiscale basis…
A novel method to enable application of the Multiscale Restricted Smoothed Basis (MsRSB) method to non M-matrices is presented. The original MsRSB method is enhanced with a filtering strategy enforcing M-matrix properties to enable the robust application of MsRSB as a preconditioner. Through applications to porous media flow and linear elastic geomechanics, the method is proven to be effective for scalar and vector problems with multipoint finite volume (FV) and finite element (FE) discretization schemes, respectively. Realistic complex (un)structured two- and three-dimensional test cases are …
In this paper, we develop a computational multiscale to solve the parabolic wave approximation with heterogeneous and variable media. Parabolic wave approximation is a technique to approximate the full wave equation. One benefit of the method is that: one wave propagation direction can be taken as an evolution direction, and we then can discretize it using a classical scheme like Backward Euler. Consequently, we obtain a set of quasi-gas-dynamic (QGD) models with different heterogeneous permeability fields. Then, we employ constraint energy minimization generalized multiscale finite element me…
In this paper, we consider a poroelasticity problem in heterogeneous multicontinuum media that is widely used in simulations of the unconventional hydrocarbon reservoirs and geothermal fields. Mathematical model contains a coupled system of equations for pressures in each continuum and effective equation for displacement with volume force sources that are proportional to the sum of the pressure gradients for each continuum. To illustrate the idea of our approach, we consider a dual continuum background model with discrete fracture networks that can be generalized to a multicontinuum model for …

In this paper, we present a multiscale method for simulations of the multicontinua unsaturated flow problems in heterogeneous fractured porous media. The mathematical model is described by the system of Richards equations for each continuum that coupled by the specific transfer term. To illustrate the idea of our approach, we consider a dual continua background model with discrete fractures networks that generalized as a multicontinua model for unsaturated fluid flow in the complex heterogeneous porous media. We present fine grid approximation based on the finite element method and Discrete Fr…
Coupled nonlinear system of reaction-diffusion equations describing multi-component (species) interactions with heterogeneous coefficients is considered. Finite volume method based approximation for the space is used to construct semi-discrete form for the computation of numerical solutions. Two techniques for time approximations, namely, a fully implicit (FI) and a semi-implicit (SI) schemes are examined. The fully implicit scheme is constructed using Newton's method and leads to the coupled system of equations on each nonlinear and time iterations which is computationally rather expensive. I…
In this work, we propose a local multiscale model reduction approach for the time-domain scalar wave equation in a heterogenous media. A fine mesh is used to capture the heterogeneities of the coefficient field, and the equation is solved globally on a coarse mesh in the discontinuous Galerkin discretization setting. The main idea of the model reduction approach is to extract dominant modes in local spectral problems for representation of important features, construct multiscale basis functions in coarse oversampled regions by constraint energy minimization problems, and perform a Petrov-Galer…

In this paper, we consider a class of convection-diffusion equations with memory effects. These equations arise as a result of homogenization or upscaling of linear transport equations in heterogeneous media and play an important role in many applications. First, we present a dememorization technique for these equations. We show that the convection-diffusion equations with memory effects can be written as a system of standard convection-diffusion-reaction equations. This allows removing the memory term and simplifying the computations. We consider a relation between dememorized equations and m…

In this paper, we consider the quasi-gas-dynamic (QGD) model in a multiscale environment. The model equations can be regarded as a hyperbolic regularization and are derived from kinetic equations. So far, the research on QGD models has been focused on problems with constant coefficients. In this paper, we investigate the QGD model in multiscale media, which can be used in porous media applications. This multiscale problem is interesting from a multiscale methodology point of view as the model problem has a hyperbolic multiscale term, and designing multiscale methods for hyperbolic equations is…
In this article, we present data-driven reduced-order modeling for nonautonomous dynamical systems in multiscale media using Koopman operators. Different from the case of autonomous dynamical systems, the Koopman operator family of nonautonomous dynamical systems significantly depend on a time pair. In order to effectively estimate the time-dependent Koopman operators, a moving time window is used to decompose the snapshot data, and the extended dynamic mode decomposition method is applied to computing the Koopman operators in each local temporal domain. Many physical properties in multiscale …
In this work, we introduce a time memory formalism in poroelasticity model that couples the pressure and displacement. We assume this multiphysics process occurs in multicontinuum media. The mathematical model contains a coupled system of equations for pressures in each continuum and elasticity equations for displacements of the medium. We assume that the temporal dynamics is governed by fractional derivatives following some works in the literature. We derive an implicit finite difference approximation for time discretization based on the Caputo time fractional derivative. A Discrete Fracture …
In this paper, we propose a physics-preserving multiscale method to solve an immiscible two-phase flow problem, which is modeled as a coupling system consisting of Darcy's law and mass conservation equations. We use a new Physics-preserving IMplicit Pressure Explicit Saturation (P-IMPES) scheme in order to maintain the local conservation of mass for both phases. Besides, this scheme is unbiased and if the time step is smaller than a certain value, the saturation of both phases are bounds-preserving. When updating velocity, MGMsFEM serves as an efficient solver by computing the unknowns on a co…
Accurate numerical simulations of interaction between fluid and solid play an important role in applications. The task is challenging in practical scenarios as the media are usually highly heterogeneous with very large contrast. To overcome this computational challenge, various multiscale methods are developed. In this paper, we consider a class of linear poroelasticity problems in high contrast heterogeneous porous media, and develop a mixed generalized multiscale finite element method (GMsFEM) to obtain a fast computational method. Our aim is to develop a multiscale method that is robust wit…
Simulation in media with multiple continua where each continuum interacts with every other is often challenging due to multiple scales and high contrast. One needs some types of model reduction. One of the approaches is multi-continuum technique, where every process in each continuum is modeled separately and an interaction term is added. Direct numerical simulation in multi scale media is usually not practicable. For this reason, one constructs the corresponding homogenized equations. The paper develops a hierarchical approach for solving cell problems at a dense network of macroscopic points…
Numerical simulation of flow problems and wave propagation in heterogeneous media has important applications in many engineering areas. However, numerical solutions on the fine grid are often prohibitively expensive, and multiscale model reduction techniques are introduced to efficiently solve for an accurate approximation on the coarse grid. In this paper, we propose an energy minimization based multiscale model reduction approach in the discontinuous Galerkin discretization setting. The main idea of the method is to extract the non-decaying component in the high conductivity regions by ident…
