it is very important to study and simulate s-wave structure for near surface (alluvium parts, in particular) owing to its direct relationship to urban facilities in geotechnical and earthquake engineering studies. so, in seismic microzonation, the first step is to study and identify s-wave pattern in alluvium in order to categorize different parts of cites according to s-wave velocity. current ...

background: we sought to assess right ventricular (rv) systolic and diastolic functions via tissue doppler imaging (tdi) in order to discriminate right-to-left (bidirectional) from left-to-right intracardiac shunts. methods: a tissue doppler velocity study via doppler echocardiography was performed in 20 patients with left-to-right shunt (without evidence of significant pulmonary hypertension) ...

we usewe use ml shear wave velocity to derive a high resolution 2d ml shear wave velocity map for the iranian plateau. the ml amplitudes and arrival times are routinely measured for the calculation of local magnitude. ml shear wave velocity is very sensitive to the lateral change of crustal thickness and switches between the velocity of lg and sn waves. an lg wave will die out as soon as encoun...

seismic refraction and downhole survey were employed to study dynamic characteristics of subsurface materials in bam city, southeast of iran. the data acquisition was performed at 160 p and s-wave refraction stations and 15 boreholes in the city. to derive velocity depth sections along these profiles as well as to perform downhole diagrams, seisimager software was used. based on the obtained va...

the goal of this laboratory study is to investigate the effect of pore shapes on seismic wave velocities in carbonate rocks under reservoir conditions. in this research, 41 core plugs of carbonate rocks from oil fields of the southwest of iran were prepared. the compressional and shear wave velocities were measured in both dry and brine saturated samples under several pressures especially reser...

summarythe explanation of the elastic, or velocity structure of the earth has long been a goal of the world’s seismologists. for the first few decades of seismological research, the investigation on velocity structure was restricted to the determination of one-dimensional models of the solid earth and of various regions within it. seismologists are currently obtaining three dimensional velocity...

There are three general methods that can be used to determine formation velocities from full waveform logs. The first approach is to make use of the data from the entire waveform. This type of velocity analysis is performed either in the frequency domain (I.e. f-k analysis or the two station method) or in the time domain (I.e. velocity spectral analysis). The second approach is to identify the ...
