Mixed Finite-Element Methods for Computing Groundwater
Velocities
Abstract
Central to the understanding of problems in water quality and quantity for effective
management of water resources is the development of accurate numerical models to
stimulate groundwater flows and contaminant transfer. We discuss several important difficulties
arising in modeling of subsurface flow and present promising numerical procedures
for alleviating these problems. Furthermore, we describe mixed-finite element
techniques for accurately approximating fluid velocities, and review computational results
on a variety of hydrologic problems.
