An Adjoint State Method For Three-dimensional Transmission Traveltime Tomography Using First-Arrivals
Traditional transmission travel-time tomography hinges on ray tracing techniques. We propose a PDE-based Eulerian approach to travel-time tomography so that we can avoid the cumbersome ray-tracing. We start from the eikonal equation, define a mismatching functional and derive the gradient of the nonlinear functional by an adjoint state method. The resulting forward and adjoint problems can be e...
متن کاملA level-set adjoint-state method for crosswell transmission-reflection traveltime tomography
S U M M A R Y We propose a level-set adjoint-state method for crosswell traveltime tomography using both first-arrival transmission and reflection traveltime data. Since our entire formulation is based on solving eikonal and advection equations on finite-difference meshes, our traveltime tomography strategy is carried out without computing rays explicitly. We incorporate reflection traveltime d...
متن کاملUpwind Nite Diierence Traveltime for Anisotropic Media
The rst arrival quasi-P wave traveltime eld in an anisotropic elastic solid solves a rst order nonlinear partial diierential equation, the qP eikonal equation. Since the qP slowness surface is convex, the rst arrival traveltime along downward propagating rays solves the paraxial qP eikonal equation, an evolution equation in depth. A second order upwind nite diierence scheme solves this paraxial...
متن کاملConditioning bounds for traveltime tomography in layered media
This paper revisits the problem of recovering a smooth, isotropic, layered wave speed profile from surface traveltime information. While it is classic knowledge that the diving (refracted) rays classically determine the wave speed in a weakly well-posed fashion via the Abel transform, we show in this paper that traveltimes of reflected rays do not contain enough information to recover the mediu...
متن کاملAdjoint Based Anisotropic Mesh Adaptation for the CPR Method
Adjoint-based adaptive methods have the capability of dynamically distributing computing power to areas which are important for predicting an engineering output such as lift or drag. In this paper, we apply an anisotropic h-adaptation method for simplex meshes using the correction procedure via reconstruction(CPR) method with the target of minimizing the output error. An adjoint-based error est...
