Multiscale Simulation and Uncertainty Quantification Techniques for Richards' Equation in Heterogeneous Media

Multiscale Simulation and Uncertainty Quantification Techniques for Richards' Equation in Heterogeneous Media

In this dissertation, we develop multiscale finite element methods and uncertainty quantification technique for Richards' equation, a mathematical model to describe fluid flow in unsaturated porous media. Both coarse-level and fine-level numerical computation techniques are presented. To develo...
