Quantitative Analysis for the Reconstruction of Porous Media Using Multiple-Point Statistics

Algorithm 2

Multiple-point statistics simulation of multiple grids

1. Choose the number of multiple grids

2. Start on the coarsest grid

3. while g>0 do

4.   Relocate hard data to the nearest grid nodes in current multiple grid

5.   Build a new template by re-scaling template

6.   Pre-scan training image to store multiple-point patterns specific to

7.   Simulate all nodes of as in Algorithm 1

8.   Remove the relocated hard data from current multi-grid if g >1

9.   Move to next finer grid
