Abstract
Multiphase flow is of high interest for the investigation of the behavior of waste in groundwater. The high nonlinearity of the model equations pose special problems. Here, a new parameter identification technique in this context is proposed which takes advantage of recently developed highly efficient numerical simulation techniques. It is based on a reduced Gauss-Newton technique in combination with an efficient gradient computation. Numerical experiments are performed for the McWhorter model problem.
