KAUST

This workshop is devoted to numerical simulation of groundwater flow and subsurface contamination transport, as well as related problems. The main topics are mathematical modeling of the processes in porous media and the numerical methods for discretization, solution of the discretized systems and numerical treatment of inverse problems. In particular, fractured porous media and partially saturated aquifers will be concerned.
