New shear wave splitting measurements using broadband seismic data recorded by the BX seismological network in Botswana [PDF]
New measurements shear-wave splitting (SWS) were determined using a teleseismic dataset from 21 broadband seismic stations belonging to the GSN-BX network in Botswana archived at IRIS-DMC.

Shear-Wave Splitting Analysis Using Optimization Algorithms
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

Robust Phase Association and Simultaneous Arrival Picking for Downhole Microseismic Data Using Constrained Dynamic Time Warping [PDF]
Accurate 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 ...

SplitLab: A shear-wave splitting environment in Matlab [PDF]
International audienceWe present a graphical user interface to facilitate the processing of teleseismic shear-wave splitting observations. In contrast to a fully automated technique, we present a manual, per-event approach that maintains user control ...

Shear-Wave Splitting in the Alpine Region [PDF]
<p>To constrain seismic anisotropy under and around the Alps in Europe, we study SKS shear-wave splitting from the region densely covered by the AlpArray seismic network. We apply a technique based on measuring the splitting intensity, constraining well both the fast orientation and the splitting delay.

Reviews on seismic anisotropy based on shear-wave splitting in the Tibetan Plateau
The research on the anisotropy of shear wave splitting in the Tibetan Plateau has been carried out for nearly 30 years, and important progress has been made in theoretical methods and practical applications. A large number of shear wave splitting results

Wave-equation shear wave splitting tomography [PDF]
The main focus of this paper is the development of a theoretical framework for the tomographic inversion of (broad-band) shear wave splitting measurements in terms of anisotropic structure in the upper mantle. We show that the partial differential equations (PDEs) that govern wave equation shearwave splitting tomography are, upon linearization with ...
