Resolving a low-velocity zone with surface-wave data
S U M M A R Y The main purpose of seismic inversion is the retrieval of seismic velocities and densities in the earth. Inversion of body-wave traveltimes cannot uniquely determine the seismic velocities as a function of depth when a low-velocity layer is present. It is generally assumed that surface waves do not suffer from the same non-uniqueness. The issue is addressed whether it is possible ...
متن کاملVelocity Inversion with an Iterative Normal Incidence Point (NIP) Wave Tomography with Model-Based Common Diffraction Surface (CDS) Stack
Normal Incidence Point (NIP) wave tomography inversion has been recently developed to generate a velocity model using Common Reflection Surface (CRS) attributes, which is called the kinematic wavefield attribute. In this paper, we propose to use the model based Common Diffraction Surface (CDS) stack method attributes instead of data driven Common Reflection Surface attributes as an input data p...
متن کاملNumerical Simulation of Impact of Low Velocity Projectiles With Water Surface
In this article, Finite Element Method (FEM) and Eulerian-Lagrangies Algorithm (ELA) formulation were used to numerically simulate the impact of several low-velocity projectiles with water surface. Material models which were used to express behavior of air and water included Null material model. For the projectiles, rigid material model were applied. Results were validated by analyzing the impa...
متن کاملOn the Layer of Relatively Low Wave Velocity at A
MORE THAN twenty years ago, the author (Gutenberg, 1926) pointed out that the longitudinal waves of shallow earthquakes decrease considerably in amplitude at epicentral distances between a few (say 2) degrees and about 15 degrees. At greater distances the amplitudes become again rather large, at 16 ° epicentral distance about as large as at 2 °. With further increase in epicentral distance the ...
متن کاملMega ultra low velocity zone and mantle flow
Mantle flow in Earth’s interior has been inferred from a variety of geo-disciplines. Two continentalscale, nearly antipodal, large low shear velocity provinces (LLSVPs) at the base of the mantle, thought to be dense and chemically distinct likely play a significant role in mantle dynamics and plume generation, and hence are targeted in a high-resolution seismic study. We analyze broadband SPdKS...
