discrete fracture network
Discrete Fracture Network (DFN) models are widely used in the simulation of subsurface flows; they describe a geological reservoir as a system of many intersecting planar polygons representing the underground network of fractures. Among the different approaches to DFN simulations, recently (Berrone et al, 2013) a numerical model has been formulated as a PDE-constrained optimization problem, in which neither fracture/fracture nor fracture/trace mesh conformity is required.
