Inverse Stochastic Moment Analysis of Transient Flow in Randomly Heterogeneous Media

A geostatistical inverse method of estimating hydraulic parameters of a heterogeneous porous medium at discrete points in space, called pilot points, is presented. In this inverse method the parameter estimation problem is posed as a nonlinear optimization problem with a likelihood based objective f...
