Newton-Krylov-Multigrid Solvers for Large-Scale, Highly Heterogeneous, Variably Saturated Flow Problems
In this paper, we present a class of solvers developed for the parallel solution of Richards' equation, a model used in variably saturated ow simulations. These solvers take advantage of the fast, robust convergence of globalized Newton methods as well as the parallel scalability of multigrid preconditioners. We compare two multigrid methods. The methods di er primarily in their handling of dis...
متن کاملFlow and fracture in water-saturated, unconstrained granular beds
The injection of gas in a liquid-saturated granular bed gives rise to a wide variety of invasion patterns. Many studies have focused on constrained porous media, in which the grains are fixed in the bed and only the interstitial fluid flows when the gas invades the system. With a free upper boundary, however, the grains can be entrained by the ascending gas or fluid motion, and the competition ...
متن کاملPreconditioning Newton- Krylov Methods for Variably Saturated Flow
In this paper, we compare the effectiveness of three preconditioning strategies in simulations of variably saturated flow. Using Richards’ equation as our model, we solve the nonlinear system using a Newton-Krylov method. Since Krylov solvers can stagnate, resulting in slow convergence, we investigate different strategies of preconditioning the Jacobian system. Our work uses a multigrid method ...
متن کاملEfficient Steady-State Solution Techniques for Variably Saturated Groundwater Flow
We consider the simulation of steady-state variably saturated groundwater flow using Richards’ equation (RE). The difficulties associated with solving RE numerically are well known. Most discretization approaches for RE lead to nonlinear systems that are large and difficult to solve. The solution of nonlinear systems for steadystate problems can be particularly challenging, since a good initial...
متن کاملLocally conservative, stabilized finite element methods for variably saturated flow
Standard Galerkin finite element methods for variably saturated groundwater flow have several deficiencies. For instance, local oscillations can appear around sharp infiltration fronts without the use of mass-lumping, and velocity fields obtained from differentiation of pressure fields are discontinuous at element boundaries. Here, we consider conforming finite element discretizations based on ...
