Abstract
Summary
An automated workflow to convert static geological models with non-vertical faults into groundwater flow models is presented. Faults in the numerical model are defined geometrically and parametrically. The proposed method is tested with a multi-layer geological model around a complex faulting system, proving its efficiency to simulate anisotropic groundwater flows due to the presence of non-vertical faults.
