3D Eikonal Solvers, Part II: Anisotropic Traveltimes
In anisotropic media the direction of energy propagation is not in general tangent to the wavefront normal. On the other hand, nite di erence eikonal solvers compute the solution based on the traveltime gradient and the wavefront normal. Local convexity of the wavefronts in transverse isotropic (TI) media is studied for the eikonal solver to determine the correct upwind direction of the energy ...
متن کاملEikonal tomography: surface wave tomography by phase front tracking across a regional broad-band seismic array
We present a new method of surface wave tomography based on applying the Eikonal equation to observed phase travel time surfaces computed from seismic ambient noise. The source-receiver reciprocity in the ambient noise method implies that each station can be considered to be an effective source and the phase travel time between that source and all other stations is used to track the phase front...
متن کاملAMTCLAB: A MATLAB®-based program for traveltime analysis and velocity tuning in 2D elliptical anisotropic media
In this paper we present the program AMTCLAB, a MATLAB-based computer code that analyzes the traveltime distribution and performs quality analysis at the pre-inversion stage for elliptically anisotropic media explored via 2D transmission experiments. This software generalizes the program MTCLAB presented in the past for the case of layered isotropic media, and makes use of traditional and robus...
متن کامل“Focusing” eikonal equation and global tomography
The transformation of the eikonal equation from depth coordinates (z, x) into verticaltraveltime coordinates (τ ,ξ ) enables the computation of reflections traveltimes independent of depth-mapping. This separation allows the focusing and mapping steps to be performed sequentially even in the presence of complex velocity functions, that otherwise would “require” depth migration. The traveltimes ...
متن کاملAzimuthally anisotropic 3D velocity continuation
We extend time-domain velocity continuation to the zero-offset 3D azimuthally anisotropic case. Velocity continuation describes how a seismic image changes given a change in migration velocity. This description turns out to be of a wave propagation process, in which images change along a velocity axis. In the anisotropic case, the velocity model is multi-parameter. Therefore, anisotropic image ...
