Abstract
We study locally mass conservative approximations of coupled Darcy and Stokes flows on polygonal and polyhedral meshes. The discontinuous Galerkin (DG) finite element method is used in the Stokes region and the mimetic finite difference method is used in the Darcy region. DG finite element spaces are defined on polygonal and polyhedral grids by introducing lifting operators mapping mimetic degrees of freedom to functional spaces. Optimal convergence estimates for the numerical scheme are derived. Results from computational experiments supporting the theory are presented.
