The numerical scheme is tested for dimensionless frequency responses to a heterogeneous alluvial valley where the velocity is perturbed randomly in the range of 5 %–25 %,compared with the full-waveform numerical solution. Then,the scheme is extended to a heterogeneous multilayered model by calculating synthetic seismograms to evaluate approximation accuracies Numerical experiments indicate that the convergence rate of this method decreases gradually with increasing velocity perturbations. The method has a fast convergence for velocity perturbations less than 15 %. However,the convergence becomes slow drastically when the velocity perturbation increases to 20 %. The method can hardly converge for the velocity perturbation up to 25 %.展开更多

In this study, it was assumed that the cross-section of the channel shows a parabolic shape, and the case that the vertical well and the horizontal well are located in the channel was considered. Peaceman's equations were modified to simultaneously solve both the vertical well problem and the horizontal well problem. In porous media, a 3D fluid equation was solved with iteration in the spatial domain, which had channels, vertical wells, and horizontal wells. As an example, the spatial distributions of pressure were calculated for channel reservoirs containing vertical and horizontal wells.展开更多

Since the original seismic interferometry can only predict inter-receiver surface waves, we propose the use of super-virtual interferometry(SVI), which is a totally data-driven method, to predict shot-to-receiver surface waves, since this method relieves the limitation that a real shot should collocate with one of the receivers for adaptive subtraction. We further develop the adaptive weighted SVI(AWSVI) to improve the prediction of dispersive surface waves, which may be generated from heterogeneous media at the near surface. Numerical examples demonstrate the effectiveness of AWSVI to predict dispersive surface waves and its applicability to the complex near surface. The application of AWSVI on the field data from a land survey in the east of China improves the suppression of the residual surface waves compared to the conventional methods.展开更多
