Facies Constrained Elastic Full Waveform Inversion [PDF]
Summary Current efforts to utilize full waveform inversion (FWI) as a tool beyond acoustic imaging applications, for example for reservoir analysis, face inherent limitations on resolution and also on the potential trade-off between elastic model parameters. Adding rock physics constraints does help to mitigate these issues. However, current approaches

A modified symplectic discontinuous Galerkin method for acoustic and elastic wave simulations
Numerically solving seismic wave equations is vital to large-scale forward modeling and full waveform inversion. In this paper, a new modified symplectic discontinuous Galerkin (MSDG) method is proposed to solve the acoustic and elastic equations.

Seismic Characterization of the Blue Mountain Geothermal Field
Subsurface characterization is crucial for geothermal energy exploration and production. Yet hydrothermal reservoirs usually reside in highly fractured and faulted zones where accurate characterization is very challenging because of low signal-to-noise ...

Numerical simulations of pure quasi-P-waves in orthorhombic anisotropic media
The accurate simulation of anisotropic media is critical in seismic imaging and inversion. In recent years, some scholars have dedicated efforts to the study of precise elastic waves in anisotropic media; however, it is easy to separate P-wave and S-wave

Acoustic full-waveform inversion in an elastic world
ABSTRACT Full-waveform inversion (FWI) is a technique used to obtain high-quality velocity models of the subsurface. Despite the elastic nature of the earth, the anisotropic acoustic wave equation is typically used to model wave propagation in FWI.
