Joint orientation significantly affects P‐wave velocity, with the highest velocity at zero‐degree angles, decreasing to 30° as the angle increases. The velocity increases slightly from 30 to 45 degrees but sharply decreases from 45 to 90 degrees. Abstract Determination of the required parameters in different science contexts using the ultrasonic wave ...

Potholes are local depression structures that disrupt stratigraphic continuity, such as in layered igneous intrusions. In the Bushveld Complex (South Africa), potholes range from a few to hundreds of meters in width, and may disrupt orebodies, cause ore ...

Seismic waves with tensile stress, high amplitude, and low frequency are most likely to trigger block instability and sliding. Blocks with a single sliding surface are more prone to movement than those with multiple constraints, and roof‐positioned blocks are especially vulnerable to slide.

Seismic Reflection Tomography [PDF]
Velocity analysis in current conventional seismic processing is beginning to appear inadequate for dealing with the increasingly complex geological structures of interest today. Tomographic imaging using individual arrival traveltimes from a given reflector may offer the prospect of reconstructing in detail an accurate velocity field above that ...
