We present a migration velocity analysis (MVA) method based on wavefield extrapolation. Similarly to conventional MVA, our method aims at iteratively improving the quality of the migrated image, as measured by the flatness of angle-domain commonimage gathers (ADCIGs) over the aperture-angle axis. However, instead of inverting the depth errors measured in ADCIGs using ray-based tomography, we in...

MUNSAT, Center for Integrated Plasma Studies, University of Colorado, C. HOLLAND, G. TYNAN, Dept. Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, UCSD — Techniques for extracting time-resolved 2-D velocity maps have been developed for turbulence imaging diagnostics. A hybrid...

In this paper, block-matching with Gaussian Filter adaptive technique is proposed to estimate the motion velocity displacement point in the ultrasound image. We apply the Hexagon-Diamond Displacement Point (HDDP) technique to estimate the motion displacement. The motion displacement is based on the hexagon and diamond displacement pattern search points. The displacement pattern search point is ...

in this paper, changes of casson non-newtonian fluid velocity profile, for different distribution of porosity, have been investigated. for distribution of porosity, fixed, radial and exponential variations has been considered. for all three states, brinkman model has been used as momentum equation. since the casson fluid is a good model for blood, this analysis can be used in studying about cho...

in the present paper, an analysis was carried out to investigate effects of radiation on a free convection flow bounded by a vertical surface embedded in a porous medium with constant suction velocity. it was under the influence of uniform magnetic field in the presence of a homogenous chemical reaction and viscous dissipation with constant heat and mass flux. the non-dimensional governing equa...

In this work, we applied Chebychev spectral collocation method to analyze the unsteady two-dimensional flow of nanofluid in a porous channel through expanding or contracting walls with large injection or suction. The solutions are used to study the effects of various parameters on the flow of the nanofluid in the porous channel. From the analysis, It was established that increase in expansion r...

In this paper, vibration analysis of rotary tapered axially functionally graded (AFG) Timoshenko nanobeam is investigated in a thermal environment based on nonlocal theory. The governing equations of motion and the related boundary conditions are derived by means of Hamilton’s principle based on the first order shear deformation theory of beams. The solution method is considered using generaliz...

according to flexibility of pneumatic conveying systems with respect to other types of transmission systems, this system has wide application in industry and agriculture processes. one important application of this system is in the loading and unloading tankers and powdery bulk materials such as trucks carrying cement, plaster and sand. conveying efficiency is associated with pressure, which in...

We elaborate the main points of the wave-equation migration velocity analysis method introduced in a previous report. We analyze its strengths and limitations, and illustrate them using a synthetic example. The inversion results confirm our original expectations, especially with regard to stability and robustness. The main difficulty in recovering a complete velocity perturbation is related to ...

Shot profile migration provides a convenient framework for implementation of a differential semblance algorithm for estimation of complex, strongly refracting velocity fields. The objective function minimized in this algorithm may measure either focussing of the image in offset or flatness of the image in (scattering) angle. Velocity estimation based on this measure of data-model consistency us...
