2D characterization of near‐surface : surface‐wave dispersion inversion versus refraction tomography

Joint inversion of ReMi dispersion curves and refraction travel times using particle swarm optimization algorithm

Shear-wave velocity ( ) is an important parameter used for site characterization in geotechnical engineering. However, dispersion curve inversion is challenging for most inversion methods due to its high non-linearity and mix-determined trait. In order to overcome these problems, in this study, a joint inversion strategy is proposed based on the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm. The ...

Rayleigh Wave Dispersion Curve Inversion: Occam Versus the L1-Norm

An integrated inversion of seismic refraction and reflection data using combined wave-equation tomography and full waveform inversion

We have developed an integrated method to obtain highresolution subsurface elastic parameters using combined wave equation tomography (WET) and full waveform inversion (FWI). Both refraction and reflection data are used. During parameterization, long wavelength and short wavelength structures are separated and mapped into velocity and density to account for kinematics and dynamics, respectively...

Dispersion of nondegenerate nonlinear refraction in semiconductors.

We use our recently developed beam-deflection technique to measure the dispersion of the nondegenerate nonlinear refraction (NLR) of direct-gap semiconductors. The magnitude and sign of the NLR coefficient n2(ωa; ωb) are determined over a broad spectral range for different values of nondegeneracy. In the extremely nondegenerate case, n2(ωa; ωb) is positively enhanced near ...
