Nowadays, the stress analysis mostly aimed at general buried pipelines. And few of the gas pipelines in tunnel (especially under the seismic action) were analyzed. Therefore, it is necessary to analyze the stress distribution of gas pipeline under seismic action in tunnel. In this paper, CEASAR II software was used to establish the stress model of China-Myanmar XX tunnel pipeline under seismic ...

Seismic full waveform inversion (FWI) uses the gradient of the objective function for computing model updates. This requires computation of the forward and adjoint wavefields on the current model estimate. Calculating the gradient on the full computational domain is wasteful when it is only required in a limited region of interest, as is the case in 4D seismic and salt boundary estimation, for ...

The LSQR algorithm developed by Paige and Saunders (1982) is considered one of the most efficient and stable methods for solving large, sparse, and ill-posed linear (or linearized) systems. In seismic tomography, the LSQR method has been widely used in solving linearized inversion problems. As the amount of seismic observations increase and tomographic techniques advance, the size of inversion ...

[1] The Global Positioning System (GPS) system now makes it possible to monitor deformation of the Earth’s surface along plate boundaries with unprecedented accuracy. In theory, the spatiotemporal evolution of slip on the plate boundary at depth, associated with either seismic or aseismic slip, can be inferred from these measurements through some inversion procedure based on the theory of dislo...

Inversion of seismic data to Acoustic Impedance is usually seen as a specialist activity, so despite the publicised benefits, inverted data are only used in a minority of cases. To help overcome this obstacle we aimed to develop a new algorithm which would not necessarily be best in class, but would be quick and easy to use and increase the use of inversion products within BPA. This new techniq...

Seismic source inversion is a non-linear problem in seismology where not just the earthquake parameters themselves but also estimates of their uncertainties are of great practical importance. Probabilistic source inversion (Bayesian inference) is very adapted to this challenge, provided that the parameter space can be chosen small enough to make Bayesian sampling computationally feasible. We pr...

[1] Since it has already been demonstrated that point-topoint seismic propagation Green Functions can be extracted from seismic noise, it should be possible to image Earth structure using the ambient noise field. Seismic noise data from 148 broadband seismic stations in Southern California were used to extract the surface wave arrival-times between all station pairs in the network. The seismic ...
