An Introduction to Reservoir Simulation Using MATLAB, by Knut-Andreas Lie, Dec 2016

From the preface: "In this book, I try to give a reasonably self-contained introduction to the simulation of flow and transport in porous media that also discusses how to implement the models and algorithms in a robust and efficient manner. In the presentation, I have tried to let the discussion of models and numerical methods go hand-in-hand with numerical examples that come fully equipped with codes and data, so that you can rerun and reproduce the results by yourself and use them as a starting point for your own research and experiments. (...)

The book can alternatively be seen as a comprehensive user-guide to MRST. Over the years, MRST has become surprisingly popular (the latest releases typically have a few thousand unique downloads each) and has expanded rapidly with new features. Unfortunately, the manuscript has not been able to keep pace. The current version is up-to-date with respect to the latest development in data structures and syntax, includes material on single-phase and two-phase incompressible flow, and discusses workflow tools like upscaling and flow diagnostics. Simulation of compressible, three-phase flow is not yet discussed, but I try to add more material whenever I have time or inspiration, and the manuscript will hopefully be expanded to cover industry-standard black-oil simulations in the not too distant future.

I hereby grant you permission to use the manuscript and the accompanying example scripts for your own educational purpose, but please do not reuse or redistribute this material as a whole, or in parts, without explicit permission. Moreover, notice that the current manuscript is a snapshot of work in progress and is far from complete. The text may contain a number of misprints and errors, and I would be grateful if you help to improve the manuscript by sending me an email. Suggestions for other improvement are also most welcome."
