The Domain of Parabolicity for the Muskat Problem

چکیده
Abstra t. We address the well-posedness of the Muskat problem in a periodi geometry and in a setting whi h allows us to onsider general initial and boundary data, gravity e e ts, as well as surfa e tension e e ts. In the absen e of surfa e tension we prove that the Rayleigh-Taylor ondition identi es a domain of paraboli ity for the Muskat problem. This property is used to establish the well-posedness of the problem. In the presen e of surfa e tension e e ts the Muskat problem is of paraboli type for general initial and boundary data. As a bi-produ t of our analysis we obtain that Diri hlet-Neumann type operators asso iated with ertain di ra tion problems are negative generators of strongly ontinuous and analyti semigroups in the s ale of small Hölder spa es.

A Least Squares Approach to Estimating the Average Reservoir Pressure
Least squares method (LSM) is an accurate and rapid method for solving some analytical and numerical problems. This method can be used to estimate the average reservoir pressure in well test analysis. In fact, it may be employed to estimate parameters such as permeability (k) and pore volume (Vp). Regarding this point, buildup, drawdown, late transient test data, modified Muskat method, interfe...
متن کاملGlobal Existence, Singular Solutions, and Ill-Posedness for the Muskat Problem
The Muskat, or Muskat-Leibenzon, problem describes the evolution of the interface between two immiscible fluids in a porous medium or Hele-Shaw cell under applied pressure gradients or fluid injection/extraction. In contrast to the Hele-Shaw problem (the one-phase version of the Muskat problem), there are few nontrivial exact solutions or analytic results for the Muskat problem. For the stable,...
متن کاملPorous media: the Muskat problem in 3D
The Muskat problem involves filtration of two incompressible fluids throughout a porous medium. In this paper we shall discuss in 3-D the relevance of the RayleighTaylor condition, and the topology of the initial interface, in order to prove its local existence in Sobolev spaces.
متن کاملA note on stability shifting for the Muskat problem.
In this note, we show that there exist solutions of the Muskat problem that shift stability regimes: they start unstable, then become stable and finally return to the unstable regime. We also exhibit numerical evidence of solutions with medium-sized L(∞) norm of the derivative of the initial condition that develop a turning singularity.
متن کاملA note on the problem when FS-domains coincide with RB-domains
In this paper, we introduce the notion of super finitely separating functions which gives a characterization of RB-domains. Then we prove that FS-domains and RB-domains are equivalent in some special cases by the following three claims: a dcpo is an RB-domain if and only if there exists an approximate identity for it consisting of super finitely separating functions; a consistent join-semilatti...
