Finite Element Method Using a Characteristic-Based Split for Numerical Simulation of a Carbonate Fracture-Cave Reservoir by Liehui Zhang, Yuhui Zhou, Lei Zhao, Deliang Zhang

“…After discrete modeling, the Galerkin finite element method was used for numerical calculation of the single-phase free flow; the method maintains a high-precision result with low grid orientations during the simulation. In addition, because only one linear equation requires solving at each step, the solution is obtained quickly. …”
