Determination of Shear Wave Splitting Parameters in 2018 Lombok Earthquake Using Rotation Correlation Method: Preliminary Result

Estimation of the Depth of Anisotropy Using Spatial Coherency of Shear-Wave Splitting Parameters

Shear-wave splitting (SWS) analyses are essential in understanding the structure and dynamics of the Earth’s deep interior. While splitting measurements have excellent horizontal resolution relative to other anisotropy-measuring techniques, their vertical resolution is low due to the steep incidence angle of the seismic phases used by the analyses. Here, using synthetic and real data, we presen...

ANN FOR CORRELATION BETWEEN SHEAR WAVE VELOCITY OF SOIL AND SOME GEOTECHNICAL PARAMETERS

Shear wave velocity (Vs) is known as one of the fundamental material parameters which is useful in dynamic analysis. It is especially used to determine the dynamic shear modulus of the soil layers. Nowadays, several empirical equations have been presented to estimate the shear wave velocity based on the results from Standard Penetration Test (SPT) and soil type. Most of these equations result i...

eiSPLIT: an eigenvalue-method for Shear-Wave Splitting Analysis

Automation of Shear-Wave Splitting Measurements using Cluster Analysis

The propagation of two orthogonally polarized shear waves, or shearwave splitting, is arguably the most robust indication of seismic anisotropy in the Earth. This splitting can be parameterized in terms of the polarization of the fast shear-wave and the lag time between fast and slow components dt. These two parameters provide constraints on the mechanism causing the anisotropy. All methods of ...
