  • METHOD FOR FLEXIBLE STRUCTURED GRIDDING USING NESTED LOCALLY REFINED GRIDS
    Publication number: 20180372910
    Abstract: A computing system includes a display and a processor coupled to the display. The processor is configured to: identify a particular area in a representation of a geologic formation displayed on the display; control the display to display a grid block to encompass the particular area, without reference to one or more underlying grid boundaries; control the display to display a plurality of buffer grid blocks adjacent to the grid block; and refine a resolution of the grid block. Controlling the display to display the grid block without reference to the one or more underlying grid boundaries allows the resolution of the grid block to be refined without restriction by the one or more underlying grid boundaries.
