The Impact Factor measures the average number of citations received in a particular year by papers published in the journal during the two preceding years. 2017 Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2018) IF: 1.4 To calculate the five year Impact Factor, citations are counted in 2017 to the previous five years and divided by the source items published in the previous five years. 2017 Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2018) 5-Year IF: 1.3 The Immediacy Index is the average number of times an article is cited in the year it is published. The journal Immediacy Index indicates how quickly articles in a journal are cited. Immediacy Index: 2.2 The Eigenfactor score, developed by Jevin West and Carl Bergstrom at the University of Washington, is a rating of the total importance of a scientific journal. Journals are rated according to the number of incoming citations, with citations from highly ranked journals weighted to make a larger contribution to the eigenfactor than those from poorly ranked journals. Eigenfactor: 0.00034 The Journal Citation Indicator (JCI) is a single measurement of the field-normalized citation impact of journals in the Web of Science Core Collection across disciplines. The key words here are that the metric is normalized and cross-disciplinary. JCI: 0.46 SJR: 0.333 SNIP: 0.606 CiteScore™:: 3.1 H-Index: 31

ABSTRAKT

Modeling of multiphase flow in highly heterogeneous porous media must capture a broad range of spatial and temporal scales that are strongly influenced by the complex structure of the subsurface environment. However, the most popular discretization methods are based on a two-point flux approximation that is only accurate for simple geometries, such as orthogonal meshes with mesh-aligned diagonal tensor permeabilities. In more realistic situations, such as sloping layers with anisotropic permeabilities, these methods may provide qualitatively plausible results, but with O(1) errors. The family of mimetic finite-difference discretizations uses a mimetic approximation of the flux to provide a robust and accurate discretization in these more complex geometries. In addition, the increasing use of large-scale models with high-resolution realizations of parameter fields is driving the need for efficient multiscale methods. Typically, these methods are based on two-level concepts that do not effectively capture the coupling of local and global information critical to anisotropic features. To address these problems we have recently developed a new hierarchical approach, dubbed the multilevel multiscale mimetic (M 3) method, which builds on the mimetic methodology. The M 3 method is locally mass conserving at all levels in its hierarchy, it supports unstructured polygonal grids and full tensor permeabilities, and it can achieve large coarsening factors. To highlight the advantages of the mimetic flux approximation, as well as the flexibility and efficiency of the M 3 method, we consider water infiltration into a two-dimensional layered anisotropic medium. The mesh is aligned with the sloping layers, not the coordinate axes. First, we present a comparison of the water infiltration resulting from the two-point and mimetic flux approximations. Then, we demonstrate that with an efficient temporal updating strategy for the coarsening parameters, fine-scale accuracy of prominent features in the flow is maintained by the M 3 method.
