Seismic Measurements of the Internal Properties of Fault Zones
-The internal properties within and adjacent to fault zones are reviewed, principally on the basis of laboratory, borehole, and seismic refraction and reflection data. The deformation of rocks by faulting ranges from intragrain microcracking to severe alteration. Saturated microcracked and mildly fractured rocks do not exhibit a significant reduction in velocity, but, from borehole measurements...
متن کاملAutomatic Fault Detection for 3D Seismic Data
A novel approach to the automatic detection of fault surface images in 3D seismic datasets is presented. Based on the premise that seismic faulting introduces discontinuities into the rock layering (that is, the horizons), a coherency measure is used to detect points of significant horizon discontinuity. A highest confidence first (HCF) merging strategy is then combined with a flexible surface ...
متن کاملInteractive 3D seismic fault detection on the Graphics Hardware
This paper presents a 3D, volumetric, seismic fault detection system that relies on a novel set of nonlinear filters combined with a GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) implementation, which makes interactive nonlinear, volumetric processing feasible. The method uses a 3D structure tensor to robustly measure seismic orientations. These tensors guide an anisotropic diffusion, which reduces noise in t...
متن کاملPredictive painting of 3-D seismic volumes
Structural information is the most important content of seismic images. I introduce a numerical algorithm for spreading information in 3-D volumes according to the local structure of seismic events. The algorithm consists of two steps. First, local spatially-variable inline and crossline slopes of seismic events are estimated by the plane-wave-destruction method. Next, a seed trace is inserted ...
