Constitutive model and wave equations for linear, viscoelastic, anisotropic media
Rocks are far from being isotropic and elastic. Such simplifications in modeling the seismic response of real geological structures may lead to misinterpretations, or even worse, to overlooking useful information. It is useless to develop highly accurate modeling algorithms or to naively use amplitude information in inversion processes if the stress-strain relations are based on simplified rheo...
متن کاملFinite Propagation Speed of Waves in Anisotropic Viscoelastic Media
Finite propagation speed properties in mathematical elastic and viscoelastic models are fundamental in many applications where the data exhibits propagating fronts. We note particularly that this property is observed in biomechanical imaging of tissue, in particular in the supersonic imaging experiment, and also in geophysics and ocean acoustics. With these applications in mind, noting that the...
متن کاملElastic Wave Propagation and Scattering in Anisotropic Fractured Media
In this thesis, we develop several methods for the delineation and analysis of anisotropic fractures in the subsurface. Our principal goal is to develop methods to use seismic data to infer fracture properties. In turn, we relate this information to the fluid flow properties of anisotropically fractured media. The first problem is to examine media with cracks oriented over a range of directions...
متن کاملWave propagation theory in offshore applications
A frequency-wavenumber-domain formulation is presented in this paper for calculation of the Green's functions and wave propagation modes in a stratified fluid body underlain by a layered viscoelastic soil medium. The Green's functions define the solid and fluid displacements and fluid pressures due to uniform disk loads acting in either the soil or fluid media. The solution is in the frequency ...
متن کاملWave propagation simulation in a linear viscoelastic medium
A new formulation for wave propagation in an anelastic medium is developed. The phenomenological theory of linear viscoelasticity provides the basis for describing the attenuation and dispersion of seismic waves. The concept of a spectrum of relaxation mechanisms represents a convenient description of the constitutive relation of linear viscoelastic solids; however, Boltzmann's superposition pr...
