... The Boundary Element method based approaches ( Castonguay et al., 2013 , Rungamornrat et al., 2005 , Sousa et al., 1993 ) attempt to circumvent some of these issues. By leveraging Green’s functions, representing solution of elastic response in infinite domain, the necessity to grid the bulk...

... The reservoir engineer then gets to use the grid, with attributes, after it has been created. If the base model is created at an extremely fine scale, it could require an extremely long time for a simulation run if the model is used withough modification. In these situations, the grids are often...

... Besides the resolution of flow simulation grids, the accuracy of flow simulation results is also largely dependent on discretization methods used for solving flow equations. We focus on the effect of spatial discretization methods in this paper. For reservoir simulation featuring multi-phase flow...
