SUMMARY:A Novel Finite Element Approach for the Numerical Simulations of F
 low and Transport in Porous Fractured Media
DESCRIPTION:Minisymposium\n\nA Novel Finite Element Approach for the Numer
 ical Simulations of Flow and Transport in Porous Fractured Media\n\nNestol
 a, Favino\n\nNumerical simulation of fluid flow and transport phenomena in
  fractured porous media represents a fundamental challenge in reservoir en
 gineering. The main issues are related to (i) the geometrical characteriza
 tion of the fracture networks present in the subsurface and (ii) the occur
 rence of unphysical oscillations in the simulation of the time-dependent t
 ransport equation. <br />In this work, we present a novel finite element a
 pproach where the fractures and the background matrix are described as equ
 idimensional domains as opposed to hybrid-dimensional approaches, where fr
 actures are represented as lower-dimensional objects. In particular, we ma
 ke use of the adaptive mesh refinement to represent the fracture network g
 eometrically, and a flux corrected transport method to ensure the stabilit
 y of the numerical model. Finally, we discuss the numerical verification o
 f the proposed methodology and a comparison between hybrid and equidimensi
 onal numerical models.\n\nDomain: CS and Math, Solid Earth Dynamics
