  • Process, device and package for stochastic simulation of ancient riverbeds or ancient geological structures
    Patent number: 7561992
    Abstract: A process for stochastic simulation of ancient riverbeds or ancient geological structures includes the following stages: (a) parameterize the geological reference horizon by linking to it a two-dimensional parametric system of paleogeographic coordinates; (b) construct a modeling function, the isovalue curves of which are approximately parallel to the general direction of the ancient riverbed to be simulated; (c) use the absolute value of the modeling function of the general direction of the ancient riverbed to be located in order to define a topographic function of the pseudo-valley; (d) transform the topographic function of the pseudo-valley by using a transfer function to determine the thicknesses, dimensions and characteristics of the ancient riverbed to be located and/or the ancient geological structures associated with this ancient riverbed.
