We present a novel mixed-dimensional method for generating unstructured polyhedral grids
that conform to prescribed geometric objects in arbitrary dimensions. Two types of conformity …

Geologists and geophysicists often approach the study of the Earth using different and
complementary perspectives. To simplify, geologists like to define and study objects and …

Corner-point gridding is widely used in reservoir and basin modeling but generally yields
approximations in the representation of geological interfaces. This paper introduces an …

This work consists of two parts. In the first part, we present new methods for generating
unstructured polyhedral grids that align to prescribed geometric objects. Control-point …

In this paper, an unstructured grid generation algorithm is presented to produce two-and
three-dimensional grids in porous media with networks of discrete fractures. The proposed …

In this paper a novel unstructured grid generation algorithm is presented that considers the
effect of geological features and well locations in grid resolution. The proposed grid …

Geological framework models integrate available observations to provide a realistic 3‐D
definition of the distribution and geometry of subsurface geological features. Geological …

Discrete fracture network has significant effects on the thermal–hydraulic–mechanical–
chemical coupling analysis in a highly fractured medium. Due to the complex configuration …

Extensive research has been done on the generation of unstructured grids in reservoir
simulation, with the aim of better representing the geology. We introduce UPR (Unstructured …

The prediction of the free-surface seepage flow behavior in fractured rock mass is of
significance in geotechnical engineering. There are two major issues in solving the seepage …
