Depth Limits in Body Wave Inversions [PDF]
Summary The Wiechert-Herglotz integral provides a direct means of calculating a seismic velocity-depth (v-d) curve from a continuous ray parameter-distance (p-Δ) curve. There is a straightforward method by which this approach can be extended to determine a velocity-depth envelope for any set of T - Δ or p - Δ data.

Hughes’s Reverspectives: Radical Uses of Linear Perspective on Non-Coplanar Surfaces
Two major uses of linear perspective are in planar paintings—the flat canvas is incongruent with the painted 3-D scene—and in forced perspectives, such as theater stages that are concave truncated pyramids, where the physical geometry and the

Avoiding negative depth in inverse depth bearing-only SLAM [PDF]
In this paper we consider ways to alleviate negative estimated depth for the inverse depth parameterisation of bearing-only SLAM. This problem, which can arise even if the beacons are far from the platform, can cause catastrophic failure of the filter.We consider three strategies to overcome this difficulty: applying inequality constraints, the use of ...

Inversion of the Full-Depth Temperature Profile Based on Few Depth-Fixed Temperatures
Seawater temperature plays a key role in underwater acoustics and marine fishery, etc. In oceanographic surveys, it is often desirable to detect the temperature profile and obtain its spatio-temporal variation.

Uncertainties and shortcomings of ground surface temperature histories derived from inversion of temperature logs [PDF]
Analysing borehole temperature data in terms of ground surface history can add useful information to reconstructions of past climates. Therefore, a rigorous assessment of uncertainties and error sources is a necessary prerequisite for the meaningful ...

Nonlinear Phase Speeds and Depth Inversions [PDF]
Experiments were conducted in a laboratory facility under with a fixed bathymetric profile containing a single bar. A hybrid data set was collected consisting of remotely sensed wave data combined with modelgenerated wave amplitude profiles. The data is used to test the improvements in depth retrieval through the use of a nonlinear composite dispersion

Subsonic near-surface P-velocity and low S-velocity observations using propagator inversion [PDF]
Detailed knowledge of near-surface P- and S-wave velocities is important for processing and interpreting multicomponent land seismic data because (1) the entire wavefield passes through and is influenced by the near-surface soil conditions, (2) both ...

Underwater Topography Inversion in Liaodong Shoal Based on GRU Deep Learning Model
The Liaodong Shoal in the east of the Bohai Sea has obvious water depth variation. The clear shallow water area and deep turbid area coexist, which is characterized by complex submarine topography.
