Metrology and Standardization in Geomechanical Modeling

Abstract

The paper presents an algorithm for estimating the error of the 1D geomechanical model taking into account the measurement errors of the instruments and the correlation dependencies used. The sensitivity analysis of the resulting error to the quality of the source information was also performed. A confidence parameter has been introduced to assess the contribution of a measurement to the calculations. An approach is proposed for the transition from the convergence of correlation dependencies to the error of the correlation used. The application of this methodology allows at the initial stage to draw a conclusion about the quality of simulation results and take measures to increase the reliability of calculations.
