Moment tensor inversion of complex earthquakes [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Journal International, 1982
Summary. Moment tensor inversion methods can be applied with success in the determination of source properties of simple earthquakes. However, these methods utilize the assumption of a point source, which is inadequate for modelling many complicated, shallow earthquakes.

MTfit: A Bayesian Approach to Seismic Moment Tensor Inversion [PDF]

open access: yesSeismological Research Letters, 2018
MTfit is a Python module for Bayesian moment tensor source inversion of earthquake seismic data using polarities, amplitudes, or amplitude ratios. It can solve for double‐couple or full moment tensor solutions, taking into account uncertainties in polarities, takeoff angles of the rays from the source to the receiver, and amplitudes.

Microseismic moment-tensor inversion

open access: yes, 2011
It is common practice in the oil and gas industry to use a single vertical well with limited number of geophones to monitor the microseismicity induced by hydraulic fracture treatment. In this thesis, I have employed a synthetic and stochastic modeling approach to investigate the effects of monitoring geometry and noise on inverting recorded P- and S ...

Moment-tensor inversion and decomposition for cracks in thin plates

open access: yesChinese Journal of Aeronautics, 2021
Abstract The knowledge of crack type and dislocation orientation is helpful for the lifetime prediction of thin plates on aircrafts. The moment-tensor inversion utilizes the Acoustic Emission (AE) signals to detect cracks and the source mechanisms can be interpreted by the decomposition of moment tensors. Since the traditional moment-tensor inversion

Grid-Based Moment Tensor Inversion Technique by Using 3-D Green's Functions Database: A Demonstration of the 23 October 2004 Taipei Earthquake [PDF]

open access: yesTerrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2010
Moment tensor inversion is a routine procedure to obtain information on an earthquake source for moment magnitude and focal mechanism. However, the inversion quality is usually controlled by factors such as knowledge of an earthquake location and the ...

Effect of sensor calibration on moment tensor analysis of granite uniaxial compression

open access: yesRock and Soil Mechanics, 2021
Moment tensor inversion theory is an effective method to study the rock failure mechanism. However, the inversion results are prone to large errors, which can mislead the understanding of fracture mechanism.

Stable inversions for complete moment tensors [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Journal International, 2008
SUMMARY The seismic moment tensors for certain types of sources, such as volcanic earthquakes and nuclear explosions are expected to contain an isotropic component. Some earlier efforts to calculate the isotropic component of these sources are flawed due to an error in the method of Jost & Herrmann.

GPU-acceleration 3D rotated-staggered-grid solutions to microseismic anisotropic wave equation with moment tensor implementation

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mining Science and Technology, 2023
To improve the accuracy of microseismic inversion, seismic anisotropy and moment tensor source should be carefully considered in the forward modelling stage. In this study, 3D microseismic anisotropy wave forward modelling with a moment tensor source was

Moment tensor inversion of perforation shots using distributed acoustic sensing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) fibers have enabled various geophysical applications in unconventional reservoirs. Combined with perforation shots, a DAS fiber can record valuable guided waves that propagate in the reservoir formation and carry ...
