3 Stokes Darcy coupling The coupling of the Stokes system and the Darcy equation has been recently considered as a model for the filtration of fluids through porous media (percolation of water from a basin through the ground). Let us start describing the coupled problem. We denote by Ω S the fluid region, and by Ω D the ground region. Moreover, Γ := Ω S Ω D will be the interface between Ω S and Ω D.

4 Stokes Darcy coupling (cont.) The Stokes system is given by { ν u + p = f in Ω S (1) divu = 0 in Ω S, where u is the velocity field, p is the pressure, ν > 0 is the kinematic viscosity and f is a given force field. A parallel iterative approach for the Stokes Darcy coupling p.3/20

5 Stokes Darcy coupling (cont.) The Stokes system is given by { ν u + p = f in Ω S (1) divu = 0 in Ω S, where u is the velocity field, p is the pressure, ν > 0 is the kinematic viscosity and f is a given force field. The Darcy equation is given by ( ) K (2) div N ϕ = 0 in Ω D, where ϕ is the piezometric head, K is the hydraulic conductivity tensor and N > 0 is the volumetric porosity.

7 Stokes Darcy coupling (cont.) For simplicity, as boundary conditions let us assume that: (3) u = 0 on Ω S \ Γ ϕ = 0 on Ω D \ Γ. The interface conditions [matching of the normal velocity and of the normal stress] are: (4) u n = K N ϕ n on Γ T(u,p) n = gϕn on Γ where g is the gravity acceleration, and the fluid stress tensor is given by T ij (u,p) := ν(d i u j + D j u i ) pδ ij. Here n denotes the unit normal vector on Γ, pointing from Ω S into Ω D. A parallel iterative approach for the Stokes Darcy coupling p.4/20
