Separation of diffracted waves in transversely isotropic media
Imaging diffracted waves can provide useful information about complex subsurface geology and fracture networks. Separation of diffractions from typically more intensive reflected events can be done based on specularity, which measures deviation from Snell’s law. Here, we analyze two formulations of specularity and their applicability to diffraction processing in the presence of anisotropy. We s...
متن کاملViscous propulsion in active transversely isotropic media
Taylor’s swimming sheet is a classical model of microscale propulsion and pumping. Many biological fluids and substances are fibrous, having a preferred direction in their microstructure; for example, cervical mucus is formed of polymer molecules which create an oriented fibrous network. Moreover, suspensions of elongated motile cells produce a form of active oriented matter. To understand how ...
متن کاملAttenuation analysis for heterogeneous transversely isotropic media
Attenuation coefficients obtained from seismic data may provide sensitive attributes for reservoir characterization and increase the robustness of AVO (amplitude variation with offset) analysis. Here, we present an algorithm for ray tracing in attenuative anisotropic media based on the methodology of C̆ervený and Ps̆enc̆ik. Both kinematic and dynamic ray tracing are carried out in an elastic refer...
متن کاملApproximate dispersion relations for qP–qSV-waves in transversely isotropic media
To decouple qP and qSV sheets of the slowness surface of a transversely isotropic (TI) medium, a sequence of rational approximations to the solution of the dispersion relation of a TI medium is introduced. Originally conceived to allow isotropic P-wave processing schemes to be generalized to encompass the case of qP-waves in transverse isotropy, the sequence of approximations was found to be ap...
متن کاملAcoustic Logging Guided Waves in Transversely Isotropic Formations
We have studied the velocity dispersion of guided waves in transversely isotropic formations. Theoretical velocity dispersion curves were calculated with elastic constants based on laboratory and field measurements and compared to dispersion curves for isotropic formations having the same vertical po and S-wave velocities. The symmetry axis for the transverse isotropy was parallel to the boreho...
