Seismoelectric beamforming imaging: a sensitivity analysis

Seismoelectric beamforming imaging: a sensitivity analysis

S U M M A R Y The electrical current density generated by the propagation of a seismic wave at the interface characterized by a drop in electrical, hydraulic or mechanical properties produces an electrical field of electrokinetic nature. This field can be measured remotely with a signal-to-noise ratio depending on the background noise and signal attenuation. The seismoelectric beamforming appro...

Beamforming for Imaging

In echo-imaging a wavefield is emitted into a medium, and through scattering and reflection an image can be formed from the received signals. Even though echo-imaging is a relatively new concept in the technological world, it is nothing new under the sun in the natural world. Many animals, such as doplhins, bats and oilbirds, use echo-location (also referred to as biosonar) to locate and identi...
