Building Parallel Surfaces

in: 13th gOcad Meeting, ASGA

Abstract

At first sight, it looks easy to build parallel surfaces. Unfortunately, we quickly face problems of intersections, especially in the curved zones. In geological modelling, it is frequent that the seismic surfaces do not fit the weil data. Then, we want ta update the surfaces in such way that they fit the wireline logs. For this operation we need a too1 which can move the surface according to directions defined on each point of the mesh. That is the main point of the TSurf-Mover. Moreover, it tries to detect the intersections generated during the pro cess, and gives one solution to this problem.
