description Abstract Combining the requirements for refined modeling and dynamic update of fault slope geological models in open-pit coal mines, we systematically elaborated on the elements and rules of slope 3D geological modeling and proposed a fine modeling and dynamic updating method based on digital elevation model (DEM) and half-edge boundary representation (B-Rep) data structures. Initially, the stratigraphic division of the study area is conducted based on borehole and section data, combined with the geological evolution history and the level set theory. Applying inverse distance weighting (IDW) for estimation, the geological interface triangular irregular network (TIN) is constructed using the TIN algorithm. Secondly, fine reconstruction of fault surfaces through Morphing transformation improves the accuracy and smoothness of fault surface shape reconstruction under sparse data conditions. Then, the intersection-cutting processing method of fault-fault and fault-stratum for slope geological ground state model modeling under complex fault segmentation is investigated. Finally, constructing 3D geological models of fault slopes and the integrated correction of surface and subsurface are realized through dynamic updating methods for 3D surfaces and strata. Taking the 3D geological modeling of a fault slope of an open-pit coal mine in China as an example, the feasibility of the technical method is verified.
