Velocity Analysis for Laterally Heterogeneous Anisotropic Media
Oil, gas, and geothermal reservoirs, and overlying strata are often composed of anisotropic rocks. Proper treatment of anisotropy during the processing of seismic data not only helps to avoid distortions in reservoir imaging, but also provides estimates of the anisotropic coefficients, which carry valuable information about lithology and fracture networks. Accurate estimation of the velocity mo...
متن کاملSeismic ray tracing and wavefront tracking in laterally heterogeneous media
One of the most common and challenging problems in seismology is the prediction of source-receiver paths taken by seismic energy in the presence of lateral variations in wavespeed. The solution to this problem is required in many applications that exploit the high frequency component of seismic records, such as body wave tomography, migration of reflection data and earthquake relocation. The pr...
متن کاملA dynamic lattice model for heterogeneous materials
In this paper, the mechanical behavior of three-phase inhomogeneous materials is modeled using the meso-scale model with lattice beams for static and dynamic analyses. The Timoshenko beam theory is applied instead of the classical Euler-Bernoulli beam theory and the mechanical properties of lattice beam connection are derived based on the continuum medium using the non-local continuum theory. T...
متن کاملNormal Modes of a Laterally Heterogeneous Body: a One-dimensional Example
Various methods, including firstand second-order perturbation theory and variational methods have been proposed for calculating the normal modes of a laterally heterogeneous earth. In this paper, we test all three of these methods for a simple one-dimensional example for which the exact solution is available: an initially homogeneous "string" in which the density and stiffness are increased in ...
متن کاملStructure of GaN„0001...: The laterally contracted Ga bilayer model
We discuss the energetics and structure of a laterally contracted Ga bilayer model for the Ga-rich pseudo131 phase of the GaN~0001! surface. First-principles total energy calculations reveal that a laterally contracted overlayer of Ga atoms bonded to a 131 Ga adlayer is energetically favorable in the Ga-rich limit. The calculations also show that the energy of this surface structure is very ins...
