Shear velocity structure of central Eurasia from inversion of surface wave velocities
We present a shear velocity model of the crust and upper mantle beneath central Eurasia by simultaneous inversion of broadband group and phase velocity maps of fundamental-mode Love and Rayleigh waves. The model is parameterized in terms of velocity depth profiles on a discrete 2◦ × 2◦ grid. The model is isotropic for the crust and for the upper mantle below 220 km but, to fit simultaneously lo...
متن کاملPerturbational and nonperturbational inversion of Rayleigh-wave velocities
The inversion of Rayleigh-wave dispersion curves is a classic geophysical inverse problem. We have developed a set of MATLAB codes that performs forward modeling and inversion of Rayleigh-wave phase or group velocity measurements. We describe two different methods of inversion: a perturbational method based on finite elements and a nonperturbational method based on the recently developed Dix-ty...
متن کاملShear-wave velocities under the Transantarctic Mountains and Terror Rift from surface wave inversion
Rayleigh wave data between 20 and 120s period recorded in the western Ross Sea region of Antarctica are inverted using the waveform inversion technique described in Passier and Snieder [1995]. From the data we extract estimates of local S velocity structure beneath the Transantarctic Mountains and the Terror Rift. The shear wave velocities found are up to 6 % slower than the PREM model at betwe...
متن کاملA one-dimensional model for variations of longitudinal wave velocity under different thermal conditions
Ultrasonic testing is a versatile and important nondestructive testing method. In many industrial applications, ultrasonic testing is carried out at relatively high temperatures. Since the ultrasonic w...
متن کاملValidation and application of empirical shear wave velocity models based on standard penetration test
Shear wave velocity is a basic engineering tool required to define dynamic properties of soils. In many instances it may be preferable to determine Vs indirectly by common in-situ tests, such as the Standard Penetration Test. Many empirical correlations based on the Standard Penetration Test are broadly classified as regression techniques. However, no rigorous procedure has been published for c...
