Abstract:

Anisotropy has significant effect on traveltime cross‐borehole tomography. Even relatively weak anisotropy cannot be ignored if accurate velocity estimates are desired, since isotropic traveltime tomography treats anisotropy as inhomogeneity. Traveltime data in our examples were synthetically generated by a ray‐tracing code for anisotropic media, and the computed quasi‐P‐wave traveltimes were subsequently inverted using the “dual tomography” technique (Carrion, 1991). The results of the tomographic inversion show typical artifacts due to the anisotropy, and that accurate imaging is impossible

Abstract:

Local tomography is interactive, ray-based, residual-interval-parameter analysis for updating background anisotropic velocity parameters. The method operates directly on image gathers generated by anisotropic curved-ray Kirchhoff time migration. A locally 1D, spatially varying, vertical transversely isotropic model is assumed. The background anisotropy parameters are the instantaneous (interval) vertical compression velocity [Formula: see text] and the two Thomsen anisotropy parameters, [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]. The interval velocity [Formula: see text] is updated from short

SUMMARY Measurements of seismic anisotropy provide a lot of information on the deformation and structure as well as flows of the Earth's interior, in particular of the upper mantle. Even though the strong and heterogeneous seismic anisotropic nature of the upper mantle has been demonstrated by a wealth of theoretical and observational approaches , most of standard teleseismic body-wave tomography studies overlook P- and S-wave anisotropy, thus producing artefacts in tomographic models in terms of amplitude and localization of heterogeneities.

Abstract:

Cross‐borehole data were acquired in the surface crown pillar of a massive sulfide ore mine. The data consist of five, two‐dimensional (2-D), cross‐borehole panels, each with approximately 900 source‐receiver pairs. The panels were located within the crown pillar at either side of and within a major subvertical fault zone that intersects the orebody. An initial analysis of the data indicates that the bedrock containing the orebody is seismically anisotropic. A rigorous analysis of the traveltimes using anisotropic velocity tomography confirms the initial assessment that anisotropy exists withi

Model building for tilted transversely isotropic media has commonly been performed by a single parameter tomography that updates the velocity in the symmetry direction, while the orientation of the symmetry axis and Thomsen parameters [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are typically estimated from the migration stack and well data. Unfortunately, well data are often not available. In addition, when they are available, their lateral sampling is typically very sparse and their vertical sampling usually spans only a limited range of depths.

Abstract:

Anisotropic waveform tomography (AWT) uses anisotropic traveltime tomography followed by anisotropic full-waveform inversion (FWI). Such an approach is required for FWI in cases in which the geology is likely to exhibit anisotropy. An important anisotropy class is that of transverse isotropy (TI), and the special case of TI media with a vertical symmetry axis (VTI) media is often used to represent elasticity in undeformed sedimentary layering. We have developed an approach for AWT that uses an acoustic approximation to simulate waves in VTI media, and we apply this approach to crosshole data.

I perform singular value decomposition (SVD) on the matrices that result in tomographic velocity estimation from cross‐well traveltimes in isotropic and anisotropic media.

The singular value distribution is different for the different parameterizations. One‐dimensional isotropic models can be resolved well but the resolution of the data is poor.

Abstract:

The recent advent of tensor tomography techniques has enabled tomographic investigations of the 3D nanostructure organization of biological and material science samples. These techniques extended the concept of conventional X-ray tomography by reconstructing not only a scalar value such as the attenuation coefficient per voxel, but also a set of parameters that capture the local anisotropy of nanostructures within every voxel of the sample. Tensor tomography data sets are intrinsically large as each pixel of a conventional X-ray projection is substituted by a scattering pattern, and projection

Abstract. Snow settles under the force of gravity and recrystallizes by vertical temperature gradients.

Abstract:

Abstract The development and utilization of geothermal energy has become an indispensable part in the process of urbanization in China. Near-surface tomographic imaging based on ambient noise is increasingly widely used in geothermal exploration. To construct the subsurface structure of Shear-wave velocity in Andi town, Zhejiang Province, recordings of ambient noise data of 4.7 days were recorded by a dense seismic array composed of 192 stations with an aperture of about 5 km. Analysis of array beamforming in high-frequency bands indicated the approximately uniformly distributed of noise sourc

Abstract:

Electrical resistance tomography is a method for sensing the spatial distribution of electrical conductivity. Therefore, this type of tomography is suitable for sensing damages, which affect electrical conductivity. The utilization of resistance tomography for the structural health monitoring of carbon fiber–reinforced polymer composites is questionable owing to its low spatial resolution and the strong anisotropy of carbon fiber–reinforced polymer composites. This article deals with the employment of resistance tomography with regularization based on a Gaussian anisotropic smoothing filter fo

In 1992, there was a collaborative effort in reservoir geophysics involving Amoco, Conoco, Schlumberger, and Stanford University in an attempt to delineate variations in reservoir properties of the Grayburg unit in a West Texas [Formula: see text] pilot at North Cowden Field. Our objective was to go beyond traveltime tomography in characterizing reservoir heterogeneity and flow anisotropy. This effort involved a comprehensive set of measurements to do traveltime tomography, to image reflectors, to analyze channel waves for reservoir continuity, to study shear‐wave splitting for borehole stress

Abstract:

The inclusion of anisotropy in P-wave traveltime tomography has been undertaken by several authors and in all cases some loss of resolution and uniqueness compared to the isotropic problem was observed. The origin of this problem is analysed for straight‐ray tomography using the Radon transform and the projection slice theorem. This analysis shows that the separation of the anisotropy from the isotropic velocity field can only be guaranteed for the dc component. Resolution at higher spatial frequencies depends upon the spatial support of the object, that is the separation of the holes in cross

Abstract If P-wave velocity depends on azimuth, travel-time tomography is nonunique for external sources and receivers. For two dimension, travel-time data can be completely fitted in terms of isotropic P velocity. We obtain analytic expressions that specify the trade-off between anisotropy and heterogeneity.

Abstract:

In this work, the anisotropic damage of semi-crystalline polymers is investigated. The model, developed within a thermodynamic framework, includes the following features: (i) the degree of crystallinity; (ii) the hydrostatic pressure effect; and (iii) the damage anisotropy. The adopted tensorial damage variable is based on the Continuum Damage Mechanics approach under the energy equivalence assumption. For the quantification of the anisotropy, a parameter called “shape factor” is defined as the ratio between the void mean diameter and the void mean height. This parameter is linked to the main

Abstract:

SUMMARY The lithosphere of Madagascar records a long series of tectonic processes. Structures initially inherited from the Pan-African Orogeny are overprinted by a series of extensional tectonic and magmatic events that began with the breakup of Gondwana and continued through to the present. Here, we present a Pn-tomography study in which Pn traveltimes are inverted to investigate the lateral variation of the seismic velocity and anisotropy within the uppermost mantle beneath Madagascar. Results show that the Pn velocities within the uppermost mantle vary by ±0.30 km s–1 about a mean of 8.10 k

We constructed a three-dimensional azimuthally anisotropic model of Europe and the North Atlantic Ocean based on adjoint seismic tomography. Several features are well correlated with historical tectonic events in this region, such as extension along the North Atlantic Ridge, trench retreat in the Mediterranean, and counterclockwise rotation of the Anatolian Plate. Beneath northeastern Europe, the direction of the fast anisotropic axis follows trends of ancient rift systems older than 350 million years, suggesting “frozen-in” anisotropy related to the formation of the craton.
