The invention discloses a three-dimensional
crustal stress prediction method based on structure size deformation and numerical
simulation. The method specifically comprises the following steps: S100, a first stage: constructing
large deformation simulation; comprising the following steps: S110, establishing a three-dimensional frame model by using depth domain
horizon data according to a
seismic interpretation result; s120, setting a constitutive model and a
strain softening mode; s130, stratum mechanical parameters are set; s140, setting a boundary condition; s150, setting speed boundary loading; s160, carrying out numerical calculation, comparing
strain distribution in a
simulation result with fault distribution obtained through
geological exploration, and checking the
correctness of a large-deformation simulation result of the structure; s200, in the second stage,
small strain simulation is constructed, the simulation result in the first stage serves as an initial model, and speed boundary loading is modified into stress boundary loading; carrying out numerical calculation, and comparing
stress distribution of a simulation result with an actual measurement result; according to the method, the model constraint degree is increased, and the reliability of a three-dimensional
crustal stress prediction result can be improved.
