Abstract
In this chapter, first a review of the iterative methods proposed for the numerical solution of the coupled Biot equations is presented. Then, the numerical scheme based on the decoupling method of the solution of the Biot model is presented. The numerical method, called the compartmental model is similar to the finite-volume method. We describe the treatment of the different types of boundary conditions.
