Implicit Finite Volume Method (FVM)

Implicit formulation of the finite volume method (fvm). Conserves fluxes across control volumes — the standard for CFD.

This is the implicit variant of the Finite Volume Method (FVM). FVM integrates conservation laws over control volumes so mass, momentum, and energy are conserved discretely, making it robust for fluid flow and transport.
