• Consistent MPFA Discretization for Flow in the Presence of Gravity 

      Starnoni, Michele; Berre, Inga; Keilegavlen, Eirik; Nordbotten, Jan Martin (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)
      A standard practice used in the industry to discretizing the gravity term in the two‐phase Darcy flow equations is to apply an upwind strategy. In this paper, we show that this can give a persistent unphysical flux field ...
    • Modeling and discretization of flow in porous media with thin, full-tensor permeability inclusions 

      Starnoni, Michele; Berre, Inga; Keilegavlen, Eirik; Nordbotten, Jan Martin (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      When modeling fluid flow in fractured reservoirs, it is common to represent the fractures as lower-dimensional inclusions embedded in the host medium. Existing discretizations of flow in porous media with thin inclusions ...
    • PorePy: an open-source software for simulation of multiphysics processes in fractured porous media 

      Keilegavlen, Eirik; Berge, Runar Lie; Fumagalli, Alessio; Starnoni, Michele; Stefansson, Ivar; Varela, Jhabriel; Berre, Inga (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      Development of models and dedicated numerical methods for dynamics in fractured rocks is an active research field, with research moving towards increasingly advanced process couplings and complex fracture networks. The ...
