    Notes: Summary. Characteristic methods are known to handle advective flow better than traditional Galerkin methods and allow large time steps to be taken when compared to standard time-stepping methods. In this paper, we investigate a characteristic-Galerkin approximation to the 2-dimensional system of shallow water equations. We derive ${\cal L}^{\infty}\left ((0,T);{\cal L}^2(\Omega)\right )$ bounds for elevation and velocity, showing these to be optimal for velocity in ${\cal L}^2\left ((0,T);{\cal H}^1(\Omega)\right )$ .

    Notes: Abstract A new parallel solution technique is developed for the fully implicit three‐dimensional two‐phase flow model. An expandedcell‐centered finite difference scheme which allows for a full permeability tensor is employed for the spatial discretization, and backwardEuler is used for the time discretization. The discrete systems are solved using a novel inexact Newton method that reuses the Krylov information generated by the GMRES linear iterative solver. Fast nonlinear convergence can be achieved by composing inexact Newton steps with quasi‐Newton steps restricted to the underlying Krylov subspace. Furthermore, robustness and efficiency are achieved with a line‐search backtracking globalization strategy for the nonlinear systems and a preconditioner for each coupled linear system to be solved. This inexact Newton method also makes use of forcing terms suggested by Eisenstat and Walker which prevent oversolving of the Jacobian systems. The preconditioner is a new two‐stage method which involves a decoupling strategy plus the separate solutions of both nonwetting‐phase pressure and saturation equations. Numerical results show that these nonlinear and linear solvers are very effective.

    Notes: Abstract A convergent numerical method for modeling in situ biorestoration of contaminated groundwater is outlined. This method treats systems of transport-biodegradation equations by operator splitting in time. Transport is approximated by a finite element modified method of characteristics. The biodegradation terms are split from the transport terms and treated as a system of ordinary differential equations. Numerical results for vertical cross-sectional flow are presented. The effects of variable hydraulic conductivity and variable linear adsorption are studied.

    Notes: The immiscible displacement problem in reservoir engineering can be formulated as a system of partial differential equations which includes an elliptic pressure-velocity equation and a degenerate parabolic saturation equation. We apply a sequential numerical scheme to this problem where time splitting is used to solve the saturation equation. In this procedure one approximates advection by a higher-order Godunov method and diffusion by a mixed finite element method. Numerical results for this scheme applied to gas-oil centrifuge experiments are given.
