Finite element methods for the nuclear waste-disposal contamination in porous media (Q805422)

This letter describes a 2-dimensional finite element model used to simulate flow and transport processes in geologic media. The model was developed by the Nuclear Regulatory Commision, for the use in the analysis of deep geologic nuclear waste-disposal facilities. The mathematical model is a fully transient, compressible and 2-dimensional model which solves the nonlinear parabolic system.
