\title{Generalized Fractal Brownian Motion Variogram Model}
\description{
\command{\link{RMgenfbm}} is an intrinsically stationary isotropic
variogram model.
The corresponding centered semi-variogram only depends on the distance
\eqn{r \ge 0}{r \ge 0} between two points and is given by
\deqn{\gamma(r) = (r^{\alpha}+1)^{\beta/\alpha}-1}{\gamma(r)=(r^{\alpha}+1)^{\beta/\alpha}-1}
where \eqn{\alpha \in (0,2]}{0 < \alpha \le 2} and \eqn{\beta \in (0,2]}.\cr
See also \command{\link{RMfbm}}.
}
\usage{
RMgenfbm(alpha, beta, var, scale, Aniso, proj)
}
\arguments{
\item{alpha}{a numerical value; should be in the interval (0,2].}
\item{beta}{a numerical value; should be in the interval (0,2].}
\item{var,scale,Aniso,proj}{optional arguments; same meaning for any
\command{\link{RMmodel}}. If not passed, the above
variogram remains unmodified.}
}
\details{
Here the variogram of \command{\link{RMfbm}} is modified by
the transformation \eqn{(\gamma+1)^{\delta/-1}} on variograms
\eqn{\gamma}
for \eqn{delta \in (0,1]}. This original modification allows for
further generalization, cf. \command{\link{RMbcw}}.
}
\value{
\command{\link{RMgenfbm}} returns an object of class \code{\link[=RMmodel-class]{RMmodel}}
