Book Description
Simulations are the fastest developing branch in geostatistics, and simulating the acies inside reservoirs and ore bodies is the most exciting part of this. Several methods have been developed to do this (sequential indicator simulations, Boolean methods, Markov chains and plurigaussian simulations). This book focusses on the last type of simulation. It develops the theory required to understand the method together and presents practical examples of applications in mining and petroleum, plus tutorial examples. An accompanying CD-ROM featuring demonstration software and color images complements the printed book.
Editorial Reviews
Review
From the reviews: "This volume was produced as an attempt to provide a single, comprehensive guide to the theory and practical applications of truncated and pluriGaussian simulations, and is derived from a set of short course notes developed for pluriGaussian simulation courses run by the Centre de Geostatistique in Fontainebleau, France. ! The book is strongly recommended for geostatistics practitioners and simulation novices alike, and is a timely and welcome addition to a rapidly developing field." (Stella Searston, The Australian Geologist, Issue 129, 2003)
