An existence result for a coupled system modeling a fully equivalent global pressure formulation for immiscible compressible two-phase flow in porous media

A new model describing immiscible, compressible two-phase flow, such as water-gas, through heterogeneous porous media is considered. The main feature of this model is the introduction of a new global pressure and the full equivalence to the original equations. The resulting equations are written in a fractional flow formulation and lead to a coupled system which consists of a nonlinear parabolic equation (the global pressure equation) and a nonlinear diffusion-convection one (the saturation equation). Under some realistic assumptions on the data, we show an existence result with the help of appropriate regularizations and a time discretization. We use suitable test functions to get a priori estimates. In order to pass to the limit in nonlinear terms, we also obtain compactness results which are nontrivial due to the degeneracy of the system.     

The existence of a positive solution for a singular coupled system of nonlinear fractional differential equations

In this paper we establish the existence of a positive solution to a singular coupled system of nonlinear fractional differential equations. Our analysis rely on a nonlinear alternative of Leray–Schauder type and Krasnoselskii’s fixed point theorem in a cone.     

On a fully coupled nonlinear parabolic problem modelling miscible compressible displacement in porous media

We study a model describing a compressible and miscible displacement in a porous medium. It consists of a coupled system of nonlinear parabolic partial differential equations. Using nonclassical estimates and renormalization tools, we prove the existence of relevant weak solutions for the problem. This is the first existence result obtained for a transport model containing both the coupling due to the compressibility assumption and the coupling due to the concentration dependent viscosity.

Approximate periodic solutions of a nonlinear parabolic system and an identification problem

This work continues our study in [L. Lei, Identification of parameters through the approximate periodic solutions of a linear parabolic system, preprint, 2005] on the identification problem for the coefficients for the lower order terms in a parabolic system, through its approximate periodic solutions. Different from the work in [L. Lei, Identification of parameters through the approximate periodic solutions of a linear parabolic system, preprint, 2005], our system now is nonlinear and the coefficients to be detected are from the first order term. From the application point of view, we now try to determine the diffusion coefficients for the system by the observation over a subregion of the physical domain. The existence and uniqueness problem of the approximate periodic solutions is studied in the first part of the paper.

Uniqueness of weak solutions for a pseudo-parabolic equation modeling two phase flow in porous media

In this paper, we prove the uniqueness of weak solutions for a pseudo-parabolic equation modeling two-phase flow in a porous medium, where dynamic effects are included in the capillary pressure. We transform the equation into an equivalent system, and then prove the uniqueness of weak solutions to the system which leads to the uniqueness of weak solutions for the original model.     

Existence of a solution for two phase flow in porous media: The case that the porosity depends on the pressure

In this paper we prove the existence of a solution of a coupled system involving a two phase incompressible flow in the ground and the mechanical deformation of the porous medium where the porosity is a function of the global pressure. The model is strongly coupled and involves a nonlinear degenerate parabolic equation. In order to show the existence of a weak solution, we consider a sequence of related uniformly parabolic problems and apply the Schauder fixed point theorem to show that they possess a classical solution. We then prove the relative compactness of sequences of solutions by means of the Fréchet-Kolmogorov theorem; this yields the convergence of a subsequence to a weak solution of the parabolic system.     

On existence and asymptotic behaviour of solutions of a functional integral equation

The paper contains a result on the existence and asymptotic behaviour of solutions of a functional integral equation. That result is proved under rather general hypotheses. The main tools used in our considerations are the concept of a measure of noncompactness and the classical Schauder fixed point principle. The investigations of the paper are placed in the space of continuous and tempered functions on the real half-line. We prove an existence result which generalizes several ones concerning functional integral equations and obtained earlier by other authors. The applicability of our result is illustrated by some examples.

Homogenization results for a coupled system modelling immiscible compressible two-phase flow in porous media by the concept of global pressure

A model for immiscible compressible two-phase flow in heterogeneous porous media is considered. Such models appear in gas migration through engineered and geological barriers for a deep repository for radioactive waste. The main feature of this model is the introduction of a new global pressure and it is fully equivalent to the original equations. The resulting equations are written in a fractional flow formulation and lead to a coupled degenerate system which consists of a nonlinear parabolic (the global pressure) equation and a nonlinear diffusion–convection one (the saturation) equation with rapidly oscillating porosity function and absolute permeability tensor. The major difficulties related to this model are in the nonlinear degenerate structure of the equations, as well as in the coupling in the system. Under some realistic assumptions on the data, we obtain a nonlinear homogenized problem with effective coefficients which are computed via a cell problem and give a rigorous mathematical derivation of the upscaled model by means of two-scale convergence.     

Positive solutions for a coupled system of nonlinear fractional differential equations

Using the Krasnoselskii–Zabreiko fixed point theorem, we establish two existence theorems for positive solutions of a coupled system of nonlinear fractional differential equations. Power functions and nonnegative matrices are used to characterize coupling behavior of our nonlinearities, so nonlinearities may grow differently; in fact, one may grow superlinearly, and the other may grow sublinearly.

A nonlinear iteration method for solving a two-dimensional nonlinear coupled system of parabolic and hyperbolic equations

A nonlinear iteration method for solving a class of two-dimensional nonlinear coupled systems of parabolic and hyperbolic equations is studied. A simple iterative finite difference scheme is designed; the calculation complexity is reduced by decoupling the nonlinear system, and the precision is assured by timely evaluation updating. A strict theoretical analysis is carried out as regards the convergence and approximation properties of the iterative scheme, and the related stability and approximation properties of the nonlinear fully implicit finite difference (FIFD) scheme. The iterative algorithm has a linear constringent ratio; its solution gives a second-order spatial approximation and first-order temporal approximation to the real solution. The corresponding nonlinear FIFD scheme is stable and gives the same order of approximation. Numerical tests verify the results of the theoretical analysis. The discrete functional analysis and inductive hypothesis reasoning techniques used in this paper are helpful for overcoming difficulties arising from the nonlinearity and coupling and lead to a related theoretical analysis for nonlinear FI schemes.     

The generalized Cauchy problem with data on two surfaces for a quasilinear analytic system

We consider the generalized Cauchy problem with data on two surfaces for a second-order quasilinear analytic system. The distinction of the generalized Cauchy problem from the traditional statement of the Cauchy problem is that the initial conditions for different unknown functions are given on different surfaces: for each unknown function we pose its own initial condition on its own coordinate axis. Earlier, the generalized Cauchy problem was considered in the works of C. Riquier, N. M. Gyunter, S. L. Sobolev, N. A. Lednev, V. M. Teshukov, and S. P. Bautin. In this article we construct a solution to the generalized Cauchy problem in the case when the system of partial differential equations additionally contains the values of the derivatives of the unknown functions (in particular outer derivatives) given on the coordinate axes. The last circumstance is a principal distinction of the problem in the present article from the generalized Cauchy problems studied earlier.
