Robust Phase Association and Simultaneous Arrival Picking for Downhole Microseismic Data Using Constrained Dynamic Time Warping [PDF]
SensorsAccurate phase association and arrival time picking are pivotal for reliable microseismic event location and source characterization. However, the complexity of downhole microseismic wavefields, arising from heterogeneous subsurface structures, variable ...

Shear-Wave Splitting Analysis Using Optimization Algorithms
Lithosphere, 2022 Shear-wave splitting (SWS) analysis is used to predict fractures in subsurface media. Specifically, two parameters relevant to SWS analysis (the azimuth of the fast shear wave and the time delay between the fast and slow shear waves) are used to quantify

Anisotropic structure of the Australian continent
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2023 The Australian continent preserves some of the oldest lithosphere on Earth in the Yilgarn, Pilbara, and Gawler Cratons. In this study we present shear wave splitting and Ps receiver function results at long running stations across the continent.

Seismic anisotropy of the upper mantle beneath Thailand: Tectonic setting constrained by shear-wave splitting analysis [PDF]
Songklanakarin Journal of Science and Technology (SJST), 2020 The tectonic setting of the lithosphere and upper mantle underneath Thailand varies and changes substantially over short distances. We have mapped these variations using shear wave splitting (SWS) analysis.

Automated shear-wave splitting analysis for single- and multi- layer anisotropic media
Seismica, 2023 Shear-wave velocity anisotropy is present throughout the earth. The strength and orientation of anisotropy can be observed by shear-wave splitting (birefringence) accumulated between earthquake sources and receivers. Seismic deployments are getting ever
