Mantle dynamics and seismic anisotropy

Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 2010
Abstract Observations of seismic anisotropy yield some of the most direct constraints available on both past and present-day deformation in the Earth's mantle. Insight into the character of mantle flow can also be gained from the geodynamical modeling of mantle processes on both global and regional scales.

Seismic Anisotropy of Fractured Rocks

3rd International Congress of the Brazilian Geophysical Society, 1993
Abstract A simple method for including the effects of geologically realistic fractures on the seismic propagation through fractured rocks can be obtained by writing the effective compliance tensor of the fractured rock as the sum of the compliance tensor of the unfractured background rock and the compliance tensors for each set of ...

Seismic anisotropy — Introduction

GEOPHYSICS, 2017
Seismic anisotropy has evolved over the years from an esoteric, largely theoretical field to a key component in building robust subsurface models from seismic data (for a detailed historical overview, see Helbig and Thomsen, 2005). Transversely isotropic media with a vertical (VTI) and tilted (TTI) axis of symmetry have become standard in seismic ...

Seismic anisotropy of a building

The Leading Edge, 2006
The Robert A. Millikan Library is a reinforced concrete building located on the campus of the California Institute for Technology in Pasadena, USA. The building has been studied by earthquake engineers since it was first instrumented in the late 1960s. Continuous measurements at 200 Hz are made by 19-bit real-time seismometers on each of the 10 floors ...

Seismic anisotropy of shales

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 1995
The seismic properties and preferred clay mineral orientation of a suite of shales are investigated using laboratory velocity measurements as a function of confining pressure, X ray diffraction techniques, and electron microprobe backscatter (BSE) imaging.

Seismic Anisotropy – Introduction

Geophysics, 2009
Abstract Most papers in this special issue were presented at the 13th International Workshop on Seismic Anisotropy (13IWSA) held in Winter Park, Colorado, U.S.A. on 10–15 August 2008. The organizing committee included Ilya Tsvankin and Ken Larner of the Center for Wave Phenomena at Colorado School of Mines and James Gaiser and Edward ...

Seismic anisotropy

Geophysics, 2001
Abstract The topic of seismic anisotropy in exploration and exploitation has seen a great deal of progress in the past decade-and-a-half. The principal reason for this is the increased (and increasing) quality of seismic data, of the processing done to it, and of the interpretation expected from it.
