摘要

This study introduces and thoroughly analyzes a novel mixed formulation for modeling seawater intrusion in confined aquifers, employing a sharp/diffuse interface approach. By reformulating the model in matrix form and incorporating an innovative variable, we extend our analysis from the stationary to the non-stationary regime, thereby establishing the well-posedness of the continuous problem. We then develop a semi-discrete mixed formulation and demonstrate the existence and uniqueness of its solution. Our rigorous error estimates, comparing the exact and semi-discrete solutions, confirm consistency with the stationary case, indicating that the error rates align in both the \(L^\infty \) L norm in time and the \(L^2\) L 2 norm in space. This work not only advances the theoretical understanding of seawater intrusion dynamics but also provides a robust framework for practical applications in hydrological modeling.
