Parallelization of the Seismic Ray Trace Algorithm
نویسندگان
چکیده
This article presents the parallelization of seismic ray trace algorithm. The chosen Urdaneta's algorithm is shortly described. It provides wavelength dependent smoothing and frequency dependant scattering thanks to the implementation of Lomax's method for approximating broad-band wave propagation. It also includes Vinje et al. wavefront propagation technique that provides fairly constant density of rays. Then the parallelized algorithm is preliminarily tested on synthetic data and the results are presented and discussed.

An Efficient Algorithm for General 3D-Seismic Body Waves (SSP and VSP Applications)
Abstract The ray series method may be generalized using a ray centered coordinate system for general 3D-heterogeneous media. This method is useful for Amplitude Versus Offset (AVO) seismic modeling, seismic analysis, interpretational purposes, and comparison with seismic field observations.For each central ray (constant ray parameter), the kinematic (the eikonal) and dynamic ray tracing system ...
متن کاملOptimizing design of 3D seismic acquisition by CRS trace interpolation
Land seismic data acquisition in most of cases suffers from obstacles in fields which deviates geometry of the real acquired data from what was designed. These obstacles will cause gaps, narrow azimuth and offset limitation in the data. These shortcomings, not only prevents regular trace distribution in bins, but also distorts the subsurface image by reducing illumination of the target formatio...
متن کاملEfficient parallelization of the genetic algorithm solution of traveling salesman problem on multi-core and many-core systems
Efficient parallelization of genetic algorithms (GAs) on state-of-the-art multi-threading or many-threading platforms is a challenge due to the difficulty of schedulation of hardware resources regarding the concurrency of threads. In this paper, for resolving the problem, a novel method is proposed, which parallelizes the GA by designing three concurrent kernels, each of which running some depe...
متن کاملMPI- and CUDA- implementations of modal finite difference method for P-SV wave propagation modeling
Among different discretization approaches, Finite Difference Method (FDM) is widely used for acoustic and elastic full-wave form modeling. An inevitable deficit of the technique, however, is its sever requirement to computational resources. A promising solution is parallelization, where the problem is broken into several segments, and the calculations are distributed over different processors. ...
متن کاملAn approach to Improve Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm Using CUDA
The time consumption in solving computationally heavy problems has always been a concern for computer programmers. Due to simplicity of its implementation, the PSO (Particle Swarm Optimization) is a suitable meta-heuristic algorithm for solving computationally heavy problems. However, despite the simplicity, the algorithm is inefficient for solving real computationally heavy problems but the pr...
