This book collects many of the presented papers, as plenary presentations, mini-symposia invited presentations, or contributed talks, from the European Conference on Numerical Mathematics and Advanced Applications (ENUMATH) 2017. The conference was organized by the University of Bergen, Norway from September 25 to 29, 2017. Leading experts in the field presented the latest results and ideas in the designing, implementation, and analysis of numerical algorithms as well as their applications to relevant, societal problems. ENUMATH is a series of conferences held every two years to provide a forum for discussing basic aspects and new trends in numerical mathematics and scientific and industrial applications. These discussions are upheld at the highest level of international expertise. The first ENUMATH conference was held in Paris in 1995 with successive conferences being held at various locations across Europe, including Heidelberg (1997), Jyvaskyla (1999), lschia Porto (2001), Prague (2003), Santiago de Compostela (2005), Graz (2007), Uppsala (2009), Leicester (2011), Lausanne (2013), and Ankara (2015).

This volume collects state-of-the-art contributions on the numerical simulation of fractured porous media, focusing on flow and geomechanics. First appearing in issues of the International Journal on Geomathematics, these articles are now conveniently packaged in one volume. Of particular interest to readers will be the potential applications of modern numerical methods to the problem of processes in fractured porous media. This book is ideal for computational scientists and numerical analysts interested in recent developments of numerical discretization techniques for underground flow and geomechanics. Engineers and geologists studying modern simulation techniques will also find this a valuable resource.
