Abstract
This thesis presents the development of a stochastic 3D simulator for modeling porous geological structures using realistically shaped grains. Unlike many existing approaches that assume spherical or ellipsoidal particles, this simulator combines the cooperative rearrangement packing algorithm with grain geometries derived from real 2D contours, represented using implicit functions. The software allows control through parameters such as grain size, grain distribution, and target porosity. The spherical grain model is validated by comparing its porosity results with those from another depositional model. While the realistic grain model is limited by computational constraints that hinder large-scale simulation, it produces complex shapes whose geometries are analyzed in detail.
