A refined two-scale model for Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids in fractured poroelastic media

A refined model is presented which numerically resolves the fluid flow within a fracture inside a saturated poroelastic material. At the discontinuity, the mass balance of the fluid is solved using the velocity profile inside the fracture, with the velocity profile being determined numerically from...
