1. A method for simulating materials subsurface to the earth, the method comprising:

  • receiving dimensions of each subsurface material to be simulated using a processor;

    receiving a value of a property for each of the subsurface materials to be simulated using the processor; and

    constructing a three-dimensional physical model of the subsurface materials using a three-dimensional printer, the three-dimensional printer being configured to print one or more layers of a print material for each of the subsurface materials being represented in the model wherein dimensions and a property value of the print material for each subsurface material being represented correspond to the dimensions and the property value for that subsurface material.
