Method, apparatus and computer programm for stochastically simulating paleo-channels or geological paleo structures

The process involves constructing a modeling function whose isovalue curves are approximately parallel to a general direction of an ancient riverbed. An absolute value of the modeling function to be located is used in order to define a topographic function of a pseudo-valley. The topographic functio...

More Information
Summary:The process involves constructing a modeling function whose isovalue curves are approximately parallel to a general direction of an ancient riverbed. An absolute value of the modeling function to be located is used in order to define a topographic function of a pseudo-valley. The topographic function is transformed by using a transfer function to determine thicknesses, dimensions and characteristics of the ancient riverbed. Independent claims are also included for the following: (A) a device for constrained stochastic simulation of ancient riverbeds and geological structures (B) a computer package comprising program code for executing an ancient riverbed and a geological structure stochastic simulating process.
