FINITE ELEMENTS IN MODELING OF FLOW IN POROUS MEDIA: HOW TO DESCRIBE WELLS
M. SLODICKA
Abstract. 
We consider a steady state flow in a porous medium caused by extraction wells and governed by Darcy's law. Point sources and the wells with positive diameters are considered. The conductivity of the soil matrix is not necessarily continuous. Several models and numerical schemes for modeling of wells are presented.
