【摘要】 地质构造变形数值模拟实验研究是遵循自然科学规律,依据数学、物理学、化学等学科中已为人们认识的规律为原理;依靠计算机先进的综合处理系统;以固体地球科学资料为基础所构建的地质模型为实验研究本体。因而,地质构造变形数值模拟是采用数学物理方法对相关地质学问题的科学描述,并采用理论分析和数值模拟实验方法,对所描述的相关地质学过程进行定量化求解。由于数值模拟可以综合利用其它学科的研究成果,建立和模拟不受时空限制的各种地质模型,为定量化地解决一些复杂的地质学问题,提供有效的分析工具,已经引起了国内外地学界的重视和深入研究。数值模拟实验研究方法的发展,将极大地促进我国地学界从采用了多年的传统的描述性研究方法向科学的定量化研究方法的转变。更多还原

【Abstract】 The numerical modeling of geological structural deformation is based on the related scientific laws and principles, which have been well recognized in the fields of mathematics, physics, chemistry and so forth. By making use of the advanced computer technology and numerical analysis algorithms, the geological model used in the numerical modeling is also based on the available scientific database coming from the solid Earth. Therefore, the essence of the numerical modeling of geology structural deformation is to adopt the well-established numerical methods of multidisciplinary acknowledge including mathematics, physics and mechanics to solve the relevant geological problems scientifically. Because it can synthetically combine the achievements in other disciplines, the numerical modeling has become a useful tool worldwide in the fields of geosciences. In addition, there are no time-space limitations for all sorts of geological models. The numerical modeling is an effective method to quantitatively solve most complicated geological problems. This will promote the revolution of the research methods from the traditional description methods that have been adopted for many years to the scientific and quantitative methods in the geosciences of China.更多还原
