Abstract

In order to carry out numerical simulation using geologic structural data obtained from Landmark (seismic interpretation system), underground geological structures are abstracted into mechanical models which can reflect actual situations and facilitate their computation and analyses. Given the importance of model building, further processing methods about traditional seismic interpretation results from Landmark should be studied and the processed result can then be directly used in numerical simulation computations. Through this data conversion procedure, Landmark and FLAC (the international general stress software) are seamlessly connected. Thus, the format conversion between the two systems and the pre- and post-processing in simulation computation is realized. A practical application indicates that this method has many advantages such as simple operation, high accuracy of the element subdivision and high speed, which may definitely satisfy the actual needs of floor grid cutting.
