How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

This article considered the numerical simulation of multicomponent multiphase flow in porous media. The resulting system of nonlinear equations linearized by the Newton-Raphson method and solved with the iterative Generalized minimal residual method (GMRES) algorithm. To achieve better convergence, we used the ILU(0) preconditioner to the GMRES algorithm. As a result, we used a completely implicit scheme called the Newton-ILU0-GMRES algorithm to solve the problem of interest. Based on the obtained sequential algorithm, we implemented a parallel algorithm using Message Passing Interface (MPI) technology. Additionally, we made comparisons between the parallel program of the presented algorithm and the parallel program using the ready-made Portable Extensible Toolkit for Scientific Computation (PETSc) library. We developed an MPI parallel algorithm and tested it on the MVS-10P supercomputer of the Interdepartmental Supercomputer Center of the Russian Academy of Sciences.
