Abstract
Building faulted stratigraphie grids can be a very difficult process. Indeed, Taking
into account the fault geometries may lead to a lot of degenerated cells, and trying
to avoid these may prove extremely difficult.
Although there are already methods allowing for a quick and clean construction
in sorne cases, using 2D parametrization(s) and morphing vectors ([Bombarde 97],
[Mallet 95], [Levy 95]), such methods are only applicable when the top and bottom
horizons defining the grid are topologically equivalent.
This paper introduces a new breed of methods, using a 3D parametrizer (or,
eventually, a 2.5D parametrizer). Such methods have a much broader base of applications,
and relies heavily, once again, on the D. S. I. method ([Mallet 92]).
