The Finite Volume Formulation for 2D Second-Order Elliptic Problems with Discontinuous Diffusion/Dispersion Coefficients

We propose a finite volume method for the numerical resolution of two-dimensional steady diffusion problems with possibly discontinuous coefficients on unstructured polygonal meshes. Our numerical method is cellcentered, secondorder accurate on smooth solutions and based on a special numerical treat...
