Abstract: Simulating steady state flows in heterogenous aquifers is one of the most widely studied problems and several numerical approaches are investigated. Finite difference, finite element, discontinuous Galerkin, spectral, and random walk methods are tested on benchmark flow problems by Alecsa et al. The quality of the methods is assessed for increasing number of random modes and for increasing variance of the log-hydraulic conductivity fields. Despite the advances in numerical methods computing accurate flow solutions for highly heterogenous formations faces computational challenges in terms of ...
