Abstract

The present invention relates to a method for simulating karstification phenomena in karst zones, especially in insular regions. This method defines a geological model of the karst zone and simulates the movement of a particle in the geological model, this movement being probabilistic. This method furthermore modifies the geological parameter depending on the movement of the particle and on the aggressiveness of the particle. The aggressiveness of the particle depends on the coordinates of the particle.
