Abstract
En 中文
We present a family of preconditioning strategies for the contact problem in fractured and faulted porous media. We combine low-order continuous finite elements to simulate the bulk deformation with piecewise constant Lagrange multipliers to impose the frictional contact constraints. This formulation is not uniformly inf-sup stable and requires stabilization. We improve previous work by Franceschini et al. (2020) by introducing a novel jump stabilization technique that requires only local geometrical and mechanical properties. We then design scalable preconditioning strategies that take advantage of the block structure of the Jacobian matrix using a physics-based partitioning of the unknowns by field type, namely displacement and Lagrange multipliers. The key to the success of the proposed preconditioners is a pseudo-Schur complement obtained by eliminating the Lagrange multiplier degrees of freedom, which can then be efficiently solved using an optimal multigrid method. Numerical results, including complex real-world problems, are presented to illustrate theoretical properties, scalability and robustness of the preconditioner. A comparison with other approaches available in the literature is also provided. (c) 2022 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
