Crosshole seismic tomography with cross-firing geometry
We have developed a case study of crosshole seismic tomography with a cross-firing geometry in which seismic sources were placed in two vertical boreholes alternatingly and receiver arrays were placed in another vertical borehole. There are two crosshole seismic data sets in a conventional sense. These two data sets are used jointly in seismic tomography. Because the local sediment is dominated...
متن کاملArrival Times for the Wave Equation
We establish a definition of arrival time of a wavefront for a propagating wave in anisotropic media that is initially at rest and where the governing partial differential equation is the anisotropic wave equation. This definition of arrival time is not the same as the one in [8, 12]; it eliminates pathological discontinuities that can occur with the older definition and is still consistent wit...
متن کاملSeismic Crosshole Tomography and Nonlinear Constrained Optimization
When an inverse problem can be formulated so the data are minima of one of the variational problems of mathematical physics, feasibility constraints can be found for the nonlinear inversion problem. These constraints guarantee that optimal solutions of the inverse problem lie in the convex feasible region of the model space. Furthermore, points on the boundary of this convex region can be found...
متن کاملLaboratory measurements of seismic P-wave velocities on rocks from the Betic chain (southern Iberian Peninsula)
Ultrasonic laboratory measurements of seismic compressional velocities (Vp) carried out on rock samples encompasing a wide range of metamorphic grades and lithologies from the Betic chain are presented. Measurements were performed at a high confining pressure on a total of 12 representative samples of the Alboran Domain (Internal Betics). P-wave mean velocities, referred to pressure conditions ...
متن کاملTime-Arrival Location of Seismic P-Wave based on Wavelet Transform Modulus Maxima
The time-arrival location of seismic P-wave is an important problem in the seismic research field. The modulus maxima of wavelet transform is a useful method for picking up the singularities of function. For applying the modulus maxima method to investigate the arrival time, it is necessary to eliminate the influence of random factors. Based on standard deviation, we present a method to reduce ...
