Wavelet transforms for the simulation of flow processes in porous geologic media

Q Wang, GJ Moridis, TA Blasingame - Transport in Porous Media, 2023 - Springer
Wavelets are localized small waves that exhibit the characteristic oscillatory behavior of
waves with an amplitude that declines rapidly to zero. Their properties include orthogonality …
