Abstract: In this paper, we study the development of efficient multiscale methods for flows in heterogeneous media. Our approach uses the Generalized Multiscale Finite Element (GMsFEM) framework. The main idea of GMsFEM is to approximate the solution space locally using a few multiscale basis functions. This is typically achieved by selecting an appropriate snapshot space and a local spectral decomposition, e.g., the use of oversampled regions in order to achieve an efficient model reduction. However, the successful construction of snapshot spaces may be costly if too many local problems need to be solved in order to obtain these spaces. In this paper, we show that this efficiency can be achieved using a moderate quantity of local solutions (or snapshot vectors) with random boundary conditions on oversampled regions with zero forcing. Motivated by the randomized algorithm presented in [19], we consider a snapshot space which consists of harmonic extensions of random boundary conditions defined in a domain larger than the target region. Furthermore, we perform an eigenvalue decomposition in this small space. We study the application of randomized sampling for GMsFEM in conjunction with adaptivity, where local multiscale spaces are adaptively enriched. Convergence analysis is provided. We present representative numerical results to validate the method proposed.
