Applications of the Virtual Element Method to Discrete Fracture Networks
Matías Fernando Benedetto · PORTO Publications Open Repository TOrino (Politecnico di Torino) · 2016
We put forward in this work several novel applications of the Virtual Element Method in the context of Discrete Fracture Networks. A family of methods is presented here for solving Darcy flow, time dependent-problems and the complete transport equation in both diffusion-dominated and convection-dominated problems. We present as well an implementation of mixed Virtual Elements in the context of Discrete Fracture Networks
