Abstract
Problem of upscaling two-phase flow through highly heterogeneous media deals with a more complex case of transport equations, characterized by nonlinearity and degeneration of relative permeabilities, as well as by specific capillary phenomena which determine discontinuous behavior of the saturation, that has not anything similar in linear case.
