Analytical behavior of two-dimensional incompressible flow in porous media

In this paper we study the analytic structure of a two-dimensional mass balance equation of an incompressible fluid in a porous medium given by Darcy’s law. We obtain local existence and uniqueness by the particle-trajectory method and we present different global existence criterions. These analytic...

Sumario:In this paper we study the analytic structure of a two-dimensional mass balance equation of an incompressible fluid in a porous medium given by Darcy’s law. We obtain local existence and uniqueness by the particle-trajectory method and we present different global existence criterions. These analytical results with numerical simulations are used to indicate nonformation of singularities. Moreover, blow-up results are shown in a class of solutions with infinite energy.
