The vulnerability of the UHV porcelain arrester is very high under strong earthquake. To rise seismic reliability of the UHV porcelain arrester, a new type lead damper, which is a new patent product, is installed at the bottom of the equipment. To investigate the damping effect of the dampers, the experimental research and finite element analysis on seismic behavior of the UHV porcelain arreste...

Seismic images and the geologic information they provide contribute significantly to our understanding of the earth’s subsurface. In this thesis, I focus on methods relevant for constructing and interpreting seismic images, including methods for velocity estimation, seismic imaging, and interpretation, which together address key aspects of reflection seismic data processing. Specifically, I pro...

flow unit characterization plays an important role in heterogeneity analysis and reservoir simulation studies. usually, a correct description of the lateral variations of reservoir is associated with uncertainties. from this point of view, the well data alone does not cover reservoir properties. because of large well distances, it is difficult to build the model of a heterogenic reservoir, but ...

When redundancy of seismic data exists factorial cokriging enables the estimation of (1) a common part, based on the common spatial behavior, and (2) the differences relative to the common part of the input data. Coléou (2002) first introduced the automatic implementation of factorial co-kriging (AFACK) as a filtering technique for the time-lapse (4D) processing sequence. It was specifically de...

The catastrophic nature of seismic risk is attributed to spatiotemporal correlation of seismic losses of buildings and infrastructure. For seismic risk management, such correlated seismic effects must be adequately taken into account, since they affect the probability distribution of aggregate seismic losses of spatially distributed structures significantly, and its upper tail behavior can be o...

Spatial aliasing in multichannel seismic data can be overcome by solving an inversion in which the model is the section that would be recorded in a well sampled zero-offset experiment, and the data are seismic data after normal moveout (NMO). The formulation of the (linear) relation between the data and the model is based on the wave equation and on Fourier analysis of aliasing. A processing se...

The measurement and analysis of seismicity in active volcanic areas is the main tool used in volcanic hazard mitigation. However, seismic monitoring technologies have met with only mixed success in forecasting eruptive episodes. This arises because, although our understanding of the spatio-temporal processes generating the observed seismic signals has increased substantially with the wide scale...

Pattern recognition on seismic data is a useful technique for generating seismic facies maps that capture changes in the geological depositional setting. Seismic facies analysis can be performed using the supervised and unsupervised pattern recognition methods. Each of these methods has its own advantages and disadvantages. In this paper, we compared and evaluated the capability of two unsuperv...

Seismic waves are non-stationary due to its propagation through the earth. Time-frequency transforms are suitable tools for analyzing non-stationary seismic signals. Spectral decomposition can reveal the non-stationary characteristics which cannot be easily observed in the time or frequency representation alone. Various types of spectral decomposition methods have been introduced by some resear...
