Scattering Attenuation of 2D Elastic Waves: Theory and Numerical Modeling Using a Wavelet-Based Method
The passage of seismic waves through highly heterogeneous media leads to significant scattering of seismic energy and an apparent attenuation of seismic signals emerging from the heterogeneous zone. The size of this scattering attenuation depends on the correlation properties of the medium, the rates of Pand S-wave velocities, and frequency content of the incident waves. An estimate of the effe...
متن کاملScattering of elastic waves in media with a random distribution of fluid-filled cavities: theory and numerical modelling
S U M M A R Y The propagation of elastic waves is modelled in media with a random distribution of fluidfilled circular cavities, which display high physical impedance in contrast to background media. Theoretical attenuation expressions for media with circular cavities, which may be filled with any material (e.g. vacuum, fluid, elastic materials), are formulated using an ensemble treatment for f...
متن کاملEffective wavenumbers and reflection coefficients for an elastic medium containing random configurations of cylindrical scatterers
Propagation of P and SV waves in an elastic solid containing randomly distributed inclusions in a half-space is investigated. The approach is based on a multiple scattering analysis similar to the one proposed by Fikioris and Waterman for scalar waves. The characteristic equation, the solution of which yields the effective wave numbers of coherent elastic waves, is obtained in an explicit form ...
متن کاملApparent Attenuation of Shear Waves Propagating through a Randomly Stratified Anisotropic Medium
Waves propagating through heterogeneous media experience scattering that can convert a coherent pulse into small incoherent fluctuations. This may appear as attenuation for the transmitted front pulse. The classic O’Doherty-Anstey theory describes such a transformation for scalar waves in finely layered media. Recent observations for seismic waves in the earth suggest that this theory can expla...
متن کاملDetermination of sediments diameter using acoustic waves
The use of acoustic waves in researches related to sea water is of most importance among scientists recently. Since these waves are the only waves, transmitted in water with lowest attenuation and high speed, they can be used in many scientific fields. The main goal of this research is to better understand the physics and mechanisms of sound-seabed interaction, including acoustic penetration, p...
