Hi
The problem is quite simple and is not a problem of numerical instability.
The problem is that when I use o power model (reducing to a linear model when the exponent is 1) both vmodel.exe (the code that generates variogram model values) as well as Kt3d.exe
don't reproduce the nugget effect that I have imposed.
So, the problem seems related to the way in which Gslib build the variogram models.
Well, I'll give a look to the code....maybe I'll see what is going on....

I really don know why you have problems with the model. It is valid for kriging but it is not valid for Sequential Gaussian Simulation.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />



The problems with kt3d, if you pretend to do kriging with trend or drift, can be related to the shape of the data and drift. If data position is linear combination of the drif the kriging system don’t have trivial solution. In the case of linear drift the estimation can be unstable if data position is close to a strike line!



Notice that if you are using <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" /> UK you have to get the variogram of residuals! It can be suspicious in some cases, then it is preferable to use IRF-K approach.
