Analysis of a Discontinuous Finite Element Method for the Coupled Stokes and Darcy Problems

Modeling the interaction between surface and subsurface flow is a challenging environmental problem. One such example is the simulation of transport of contaminants through rivers into the aquifers. Mathematically, this complex problem can be modeled by the coupled system of Stokes and Darcy equations. The aim of this paper is to formulate and analyze a discontinuous finite element method for t...

A Hybrid Discontinuous Galerkin Method for Darcy-Stokes Problems

We propose and analyze a hybrid discontinuous Galerkin method for the solution of incompressible flow problems, which allows to deal with pure Stokes, pure Darcy, and coupled Darcy-Stokes flow in a unified manner. The flexibility of the method is demonstrated in numerical examples.

A stabilized mixed finite element method for Darcy–Stokes flow

This paper presents a new stabilized finite element method for the Darcy–Stokes equations also known as the Brinkman model of lubrication theory. These equations also govern the flow of incompressible viscous fluids through permeable media. The proposed method arises from a decomposition of the velocity field into coarse/resolved scales and fine/unresolved scales. Modelling of the unresolved sc...

A Robust Finite Element Method for Darcy-Stokes Flow

Finite element methods for a family of systems of singular perturbation problems of a saddle point structure are discussed. The system is approximately a linear Stokes problem when the perturbation parameter is large, while it degenerates to a mixed formulation of Poisson’s equation as the perturbation parameter tends to zero. It is established, basically by numerical experiments, that most of ...
