These two sub-modules are solved numerically using implicit time integration in the hydraulic part and explicit time stepping in the transport part. In addition, interpolation is used to couple the two models with different grids.

In particular, the developed coupled scheme allows us to study phenomena associated with complex fluid flow within the fracture, such as for the case of Saffman-Taylor instability.
