  • Descrição: The Multiscale Robin Coupled Method (MRCM) is a recent multiscale numerical method based on a non-overlapping domain decomposition procedure. One of its hallmarks is that the MRCM allows for the independent definition of interface spaces for pressure and flux over the skeleton of the decomposition. The accuracy of the MRCM depends on the choice of these interface spaces, as well as on an algorithmic parameter β in the Robin interface conditions imposed at the subdomain boundaries. This work presents an extensive numerical assessment of the MRCM in both of these aspects. Two types of interface spaces are implemented: usual piecewise polynomial spaces and informed spaces, the latter obtained from sets of snapshots by dimensionality reduction. Different distributions of the unknowns between pressure and flux are explored. Two non-dimensionalizations of β are tested. The assessment is conducted on realistic, high contrast, channelized permeability fields from a SPE benchmark database. The results show that β, suitably non-dimensionalized, can be fixed to unity to avoid any indeterminacy in the method. Further, with both types of spaces it is observed that a balanced distribution of the interface unknowns between pressure and flux renders the MRCM quite attractive both in accuracy and in computational cost, competitive with other multiscale methods from the literature
