Stochastic simulation of flows and particle transport in porous tubes

2008, Sabelfeld, Karl, Kurbanmuradov, Orazgeldi, Levykin, Alexander

A Monte Carlo method is developed for stochastic simulation of flows and particle transport in tubes filled with a porous medium. The hydraulic conductivity is assumed to be a random field of a given statistical structure, the flow is modelled in a tube with prescribed boundary conditions. Numerical experiments are carried out by solving the random Darcy equation for each sample of the hydraulic conductivity by a SOR iteration method, and tracking Lagrangian trajectories in the simulated flow. We present and analyze different Eulerian and Lagrangian statistical characteristics of the flow such as transverse and longitudinal velocity correlation functions, diffusion coefficients, the mean and variance of Lagrangian trajectories, and discuss a ''stagnation" effect which was found in our simulations.

Stochastic spectral and Fourier-wavelet methods for vector Gaussian random fields

2005, Kurbanmuradov, Orazgeldi, Sabelfeld, Karl

Randomized Spectral Models (RSM) and Randomized Fourier-Wavelet Models (FWM) for simulation of homogeneous Gaussian random fields based on spectral representations and plane wave decomposition of random fields are developed. Extensions of FWM to vector random processes are constructed. Convergence of the constructed Fourier-Wavelet models (in the sense of finite-dimensional distributions) under some general conditions on the spectral tensor is given. A comparative analysis of RSM and FWM is made by calculating Eulerian and Lagrangian statistical characteristics of a 3D isotropic incompressible random field through an ensemble and space averaging
