Geomodeling applies mathematical methods to the unified modeling of the topology, geometry, and physical properties of geological objects. The methodology (gOcad, computer assisted design of geological data) is general, but in this book the author presents a new interpolation method for modeling natural objects that allows application of a wide range of complex data. The audience for the book will be graduate students and practitioners in the earth and environmental sciences.
This book investigates the application of advanced mathematical methods to the unified modeling of geological topology, geometry, and physical properties. Jean-Laurent Mallet, a recognized expert in the field, utilizes his extensive background in computer-assisted design to present a comprehensive methodology for modeling natural objects. The text introduces a novel interpolation technique designed to integrate complex, multi-source geological data into a coherent digital framework.
What You Will Find
Experts identify this work as a foundational text for graduate students and practitioners working in earth and environmental sciences. Readers frequently note the technical density of the prose, which requires a strong background in mathematics and geostatistics to fully implement the proposed modeling techniques.
