The authors develop finite element methods for degenerate elliptic-parabolic system which describes the flow of two incompressible, immiscible fluids in porous media \(\Omega \subset\mathbb{R}^d\), \(d\leq 3\): \[ -\nabla \cdot \left\{ k (\lambda(s) \nabla p + \gamma_1^\prime(s))\right\}= q(s), \tag{1} \] \[ \phi \partial_t s - \nabla \cdot \left\{k(\nabla \theta + \lambda_w(s)\nabla p + \gamma_2^\prime(s)) \right\}= q_w(s), \tag{2} \] where \(\phi\) and \(k\) are the porosity and absolute permeability of the porous system, \(s\) is the saturation of the wetting phase. Local mesh refinement techniques for solving of (1), (2) are discussed. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0914.00066].
