Bayesian inversion for steady flow in fractured porous media with contact on fractures and hydro-mechanical coupling
The paper is motivated by a strong interest in numerical analysis of flow in fractured porous media, e.g., rocks in geo-engineering applications. It follows the conception of porous media as a continuum with f...
