Modeling Flow and Pressure Fields in Porous Media with High Conductivity Flow Channels and Smart Placement of Branch Cuts for Variant and Invariant Complex Potentials

Modeling Flow and Pressure Fields in Porous Media with High Conductivity Flow Channels and Smart Placement of Branch Cuts for Variant and Invariant Complex Potentials

A long overdue distinction between so-called <i>variant </i>and <i>invariant</i> complex potentials is proposed here for the first time. Invariant complex potentials describe physical flows where a switch of the real and imaginary parts of the function will still describe the...
