  • Discontinuity detection
    Patent number: 8886503
    Abstract: Implementations of discontinuity detection are described. In one possible embodiment, information associated with a computer-generated model is accessed. A location associated with a feature in the model can be reviewed for possible discontinuity properties by comparing an orientation associated with the location to an orientation of a true normal to the feature associated with a specific point nearby the location. In one possible aspect, if the orientation associated with the location and the true normal are within a given range of one another, the location can be flagged as a possible discontinuity in the feature.
    Type: Grant

    Date of Patent: November 11, 2014
    Assignee: Schlumberger Technology Corporation
