in seismic exploration studies different types of techniques are used to recognize seismic features in terms of their temporal and spatial spectra. variations in frequency content are sensitive to subtle changes in reflection information (castro de matos et al., 2003). in this study the joint time-frequency analysis is used for seismic texture recognition. discrete wavelet transform (dwt) witho...

development of new methods in seismic analysis and increasing application of performance based seismic design necessitate the study of the seismic performance of structures designed based on iranian regulations. in this study the seismic performance of steel moment-resisting frames designed based on the tenth code of the iranian national building regulations is investigated. frames are differen...

seismic attributes are very useful in seismic data interpretation. one of these attributes is the coherency attribute. seismic coherency is a complex trace and a geometrical attribute that is applied to a 3d cube of seismic data. it is a measure of lateral changes in acoustic impedance caused by the variation in structure, stratigraphy, lithology, porosity, and the presence of hydrocarbons. whe...

field observations of the incurred damages to the buildings and bridges due to earthquakes in near field show there are various failure modes which are in relation to the forces caused by vertical component. while vertical component of earthquake for ordinary buildings in most seismic regulations and standards is not considered. therefore, in the current study the effects of vertical and horizo...

faults/fractures detection is an essential step of the full field study in hydrocarbon reservoir. definition of exact location of these structural events is a critical step to optimize location of the development wells. despite of the fast development of the geo science technology and oil industry in recent years, detection of the small geological events such as faults and fractures in some of ...

growing environmental and social concerns, both on the part of decision makers and public opinion, have brought a new perspective to the perception of hazard assessments a valid alternative in the long-term, and an effective complement in short and medium terms, to traditional design procedure for a resistant and safe environment. results of the gradual development of research on the probabilis...

Various approached have been introduced to extract as much as information form seismic image for any specific reservoir or geological study. Modeling of faults and fractures are among the most attracted objects for interpretation in geological study on seismic images that several strategies have been presented for this specific purpose. In this study, we have presented a modified approach of ap...

Porosity is one of the key parameters associated with oil reservoirs. Determination of this petrophysical parameter is an essential step in reservoir characterization. Among different linear and nonlinear prediction tools such as multi-regression and polynomial curve fitting, artificial neural network has gained the attention of researchers over the past years. In the present study, two-dimensi...
