Their metal complexes added more value to their applications. Here, we have synthesized two 2-pyridinone derivatives(3-cyano-4-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-6-phenyl-2(1 H)-pyridinone and 3-cyano-4-chlorophenyl-6-(4-tolyl)-2(1 H)-pyridinone) using one-pot multicomponent system. They were well characterized using spectroscopic techniques like nuclear magnetic resonance(NMR-1 H & 13 C), Fourier transform infrared(FT-IR) and UV/Vis spectroscopy. The final structures were determined using single-crystal X-ray diffraction technique which helps us to determine their geometries. Density functional theory(DFT) and time-dependent density functional theory(TD-DFT) with suitable basis-sets of calculations have correctly simulated these spectroscopic parameters. The intramolecular charge transfer(ICT) of both substrates has been discussed using natural bond orbital(NBO) technique. Molecular electrostatic potential(MEP) surfaces showed their reactive locations for intermolecular charge transfer. Compared to p-nitroaniline(pNA), both substrates were shown to have substantial molecular hyperpolarizability.展开更多

The results show that these parameters are not constants and their values depend on local concentration and temperature. Quantitative simulation of solidification in multicomponent alloys is almost impossible without such parameters available. In this model, the interfacial region is assumed to be a mixture of solid and liquid with the same chemical potentials, but with different composition. The anti-trapping current is also considered in the model. And this model was successfully applied to industrial A1-Cu-Mg alloy for the free equiaxed dendrite solidification process.展开更多

The methods and models are unsuitable as geoelectric models of conductive surrounding rocks because they are based on regular local targets. We also propose a calculation and analysis scheme based on numerical simulations of the subsurface transient electromagnetic fields. In the modeling of the electromagnetic fields, the forward modeling simulations are performed by using the finite-difference time-domain method and the discrete image method, which combines the Gaver–Stehfest inverse Laplace transform with the Prony method to solve the initial electromagnetic fields. The precision in the iterative computations is ensured by using the transmission boundary conditions. For the response analysis, we customize geoelectric models consisting of near-borehole targets and conductive wall rocks and implement forward modeling simulations. The observed electric fields are converted into induced electromotive force responses using multicomponent observation devices. By comparing the transient electric fields and multicomponent responses under different conditions, we suggest that the multicomponent-induced electromotive force responses are related to the horizontal and vertical gradient variations of the transient electric field at different times. The characteristics of the response are determined by the varying the subsurface transient electromagnetic fields, i.e., diffusion, attenuation and distortion, under different conditions as well as the electromagnetic fields at the observation positions. The calculation and analysis scheme of the response consider the surrounding rocks and the anomalous field of the local targets. It therefore can account for the geological data better than conventional transient field response analysis of local targets.展开更多

Prestack depth migration of multicomponent seismic data improves the accuracy of imaging subsurface complex geological structures. Viscoelastic prestack depth migration is of practical significance because it considers the viscosity of the subsurface media. We use Gaussian beam migration to compensate for the attenuation in multicomponent seismic data. First, we use the Gaussian beam method to simulate the wave propagation in a viscoelastic medium and introduce the complex velocity Q-related and exact viscoelastic Zoeppritz equation. Second, we discuss PP- and PS-wave Gaussian beam prestack depth migration algorithms for common-shot gathers to derive expressions for the attenuation and compensation. The algorithms correct the amplitude attenuation and phase distortion caused by Q, and realize multicomponent Gaussian beam prestack depth migration based on the attenuation compensation and account for the effect of inaccurate Q on migration. Numerical modeling suggests that the imaging resolution of viscoelastic Gaussian beam prestack depth migration is high when the viscosity of the subsurface is considered.展开更多

Without low-frequency data, it is difficult to recover the long-wavelength components ...The absence of low-frequency information in seismic data is one of the most difficult problems in elastic full waveform inversion. Without low-frequency data, it is difficult to recover the long-wavelength components of subsurface models and the inversion converges to local minima. To solve this problem, the elastic envelope inversion method is introduced. Based on the elastic envelope operator that is capable of retrieving low- frequency signals hidden in multicomponent data, the proposed method uses the envelope of multicomponent seismic signals to construct a misfit function and then recover the long- wavelength components of the subsurface model. Numerical tests verify that the elastic envelope method reduces the inversion nonlinearity and provides better starting models for the subsequent conventional elastic full waveform inversion and elastic depth migration, even when low frequencies are missing in multicomponent data and the starting model is far from the true model. Numerical tests also suggest that the proposed method is more effective in reconstructing the long-wavelength components of the S-wave velocity model. The inversion of synthetic data based on the Marmousi-2 model shows that the resolution of conventional elastic full waveform inversion improves after using the starting model obtained using the elastic envelope method. Finally, the limitations of the elastic envelope inversion method are discussed.展开更多

文摘Multicomponent Gd_(1−x)Sm_(x)Ba_(0.5)Sr_(0.5)CoCuO_(5+δ)double perovskites are optimized for application in terms of chemical composi-tion and morphology for the use as oxygen electrodes in solid oxide cells.Structural studies of other physicochemical properties are con-ducted on a series of materials obtained by the sol-gel method with different ratios of Gd and Sm cations.It is documented that changing the x value,and the resulting adjustment of the average ionic radius,have a significant impact on the crystal structure,stability,as well as on the total conductivity and thermomechanical properties of the materials,with the best results obtained for the Gd_(0.75)Sm_(0.2)5Ba_(0.5)Sr_(0.5)CoCuO_(5+δ)composition.Oxygen electrodes are prepared using the selected compound,allowing to obtain low polarization resistance values,such as 0.086Ω·cm^(2)at 800℃.Systematic studies of electrocatalytic activity are conducted using La_(0.8)Sr_(0.2)Ga_(0.8)Mg_(_(0.2))O_(3−δ)as the electrolyte for all electrodes,and Ce_(0.8)Gd_(0.2)O_(2−δ)electrolyte for the best performing Gd_(0.75)Sm_(0.2)5Ba_(0.5)Sr_(0.5)CoCuO_(5+δ)electrodes.The electrochemical data are analyzed using the distribution of relaxation times method.Also,the influence of the preparation method of the electrode material is in-ve`stigated using the electrospinning technique.Finally,the performance of the Gd_(0.75)Sm_(0.2)5Ba_(0.5)Sr_(0.5)CoCuO_(5+δ)electrodes is tested in a Ni-YSZ(yttria-stabilized zirconia)anode-supported cell with a Ce_(0.8)Gd_(0.2)O_(2−δ)buffer layer,in the fuel cell and electrolyzer operating modes.With the electrospun electrode,a power density of 462 mW·cm^(−2)is obtained at 700℃,with a current density of ca.0.2 A·cm^(−2)at 1.3 V for the electrolysis at the same temperature,indicating better performance compared to the sol-gel-based electrode.

文摘Despite their attractive features of high energy density,low cost,and safety,polysulfide/iodide flow batteries(SIFBs)are hampered by the sluggish kinetics of the iodide redox couple,which restricts overall performance.Multicomponent sulfides are demonstrated as promising catalysts for accelerating I^(-)/I_(3)^(-) redox reactions.Concurrently,the enhanced configurational entropy arising from multinary compositions drives synergistic effects among constituent elements,establishing a viable pathway to optimize catalytic performance.Building on these foundations,this work introduces a targeted orbital hybridization-optimized electron density strategy to enhance the catalytic activity.Implementing this concept,we developed an in-situ solvothermal synthesis process for an entropy-enhanced AgCuZnSnS_(4) loaded graphite felt(ACZTS/GF)electrode.The engineered electrode demonstrates exceptional electrocatalytic performance with improved bulk conductivity and interfacial charge transfer kinetics within a SIFB.The cell achieves a high energy efficiency of 88.5%at 20 mA·cm^(−2) with 10%state-of-charge.Furthermore,the battery delivers a maximum power density of 119.8 mW·cm^(−2) and exhibits excellent long-term cycling stability.These significant results stem from orbital hybridization-driven electronic state optimization and entropy effect-induced synergistic catalysis.
文摘Pyridinone derivatives are of great interest in medicinal chemistry where they were found to be potent to various diseases. Their metal complexes added more value to their applications. Here, we have synthesized two 2-pyridinone derivatives(3-cyano-4-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-6-phenyl-2(1 H)-pyridinone and 3-cyano-4-chlorophenyl-6-(4-tolyl)-2(1 H)-pyridinone) using one-pot multicomponent system. They were well characterized using spectroscopic techniques like nuclear magnetic resonance(NMR-1 H & 13 C), Fourier transform infrared(FT-IR) and UV/Vis spectroscopy. The final structures were determined using single-crystal X-ray diffraction technique which helps us to determine their geometries. Density functional theory(DFT) and time-dependent density functional theory(TD-DFT) with suitable basis-sets of calculations have correctly simulated these spectroscopic parameters. The intramolecular charge transfer(ICT) of both substrates has been discussed using natural bond orbital(NBO) technique. Molecular electrostatic potential(MEP) surfaces showed their reactive locations for intermolecular charge transfer. Compared to p-nitroaniline(pNA), both substrates were shown to have substantial molecular hyperpolarizability.

文摘Functional hyperbranched polymers,as an important class of materials,are widely applied in diverse areas.Therefore,the development of simple and efficient reactions to prepare hyperbranched polymers is of great significance.In this work,trialdehydes,diamines,and trimethylsilyl cyanide could easily undergo multicomponent polymerization under mild conditions,producing hyperbranched poly(α-aminonitrile)s with high molecular weights(M_(w) up to 4.87×10^(4))in good yields(up to 85%).The hyperbranched poly(α-aminonitrile)s have good solubility in commonly used organic solvents,high thermal stability as well as morphological stability.Furthermore,due to the numerous aldehyde groups in their branched chains,these hb-poly(α-aminonitrile)s can undergo one-pot,two-step,four-component post-polymerization with high efficiency.This work not only confirms the efficiency of our established catalyst-free multicomponent polymerization of aldehydes,amines and trimethylsilyl cyanide,but also provides a versatile and powerful platform for the preparation of functional hyperbranched polymeric materials.

文摘Exploration of new green polymerization strategies for the construction of conjugated polymers is important but challengeable.In this work,a multicomponent polymerization of acetylarenes,alkynones and ammonium acetate for in situ construction of conjugated poly(triarylpyridine)s was developed.The polymerization reactions of diacetylarenes,aromatic dialkynones and NH_(4)OAc were performed in dimethylsulfoxide(DMSO)under heating in the presence of potassium tert-butoxide(t-BuOK),affording four conjugated poly(2,4,6-triarylpyridine)s(PTAPs)in satisfactory yields.The resulting PTAPs have good solubility in common organic solvents and high thermal stability with 5%weight loss temperatures reaching up to 460℃.They are also electrochemically active.The PTAPs incorporating tetraphenylethene units manifest aggregation-induced emission features.Moreover,through simply being doped into poly(vinyl alcohol)(PVA)matrix,the polymer and model compound containing triphenylamine moieties exhibit room-temperature phosphorescence properties with ultralong lifetimes up to 696.2 ms and high quantum yields up to 28.7%.This work not only provides a facile green synthetic route for conjugated polymers but also offers new insights into the design of advanced materials with unique photophysical properties.

文摘Premature adiabatic shear localization caused by strain softening is a roadblock for the application of body-centered cubic(BCC)structured high-entropy alloy(HEAs)in the impact field.A micron-scale orthorhombic-phase(O-phase)strengthened TiZrVNbAl alloy was developed to delay adiabatic shear failure and enhance dynamic ductility.The O-phase can not only reduce the slip length,but also promote the pinning and tangling of the dislocations near the phase boundaries.The introduction of the O-phase transformed the strain hardening rate from negative to positive,resulting in a significantly improved dynamic shear resistance.Meanwhile,slip transfer across the O-phase via dislocation cutting mechanisms and a reduction of slip band spacing guaranteed dynamic deformation uniformity.Benefiting from the introduction of the O-phase,the alloy exhibits an excellent stored energy density(∼446 J/cm^(3),surpass the reported BCC-HEAs and typical titanium alloys),a large dynamic fracture strain(∼42%)and a considerable dynamic specific yield strength(∼241 MPa cm^(3)g^(-1)).The present study presents an effective approach for developing BCC-HEAs with excellent dynamic shear resistance and plasticity.

文摘Dimethyl sulfoxide(DMSO)possessing strong solvency and high boiling point is a very important aprotic polar solvent in organic and polymer synthesis.Notably,it is also a useful synthon in organic chemistry.However,the direct incorporation of DMSO in polymer synthesis remains challenging.In this work,DMSO was successfully converted to nitrogen-containing heterocyclic polymers as a monomer via multicomponent polymerizations(MCPs)with dialdehydes and diamines in the presence of K_(2)S_(2)O_(8)/t-BuOK at 120℃in 6 h.A series of poly(phenylquinoline)s with high M_(w)values(up to 5.11×10^(4))were obtained in satisfactory yields(up to 82%),performing good solubility,good thermal and morphological stability as well as excellent film-forming ability.The thin films of poly(phenylquinoline)s exhibit high refractive index value in a wide wavelength range of 400–1700 nm.Thus,this work not only enriches the family of MCPs but also provides an efficient strategy for the conversion of DMSO into functional polymeric materials that are potentially applicable in diverse areas.

文摘With the evolution of nickel-based single crystal superalloys,there is an increase in heavy elements such as Re and Ru.This has made solutal convection more pronounced during the directional solidification process,leading to solute redistribution and increasing the risk of casting defects such as low-angle grain boundaries.To avoid casting defects,downward directional solidification(DWS)method is adopted to eliminate solutal convection and change solute redistribution.However,there is currently no in-situ characterization or quantitative simulation studying the solute redistribution during DWS and upward directional solidification(UWS)processes.A multicomponent phase field simulation coupled with lattice Boltzmann method was employed to quantitatively investigate changes in dendrite morphology,solutal convection and deviation of dendrite tips from the perspective of solute redistribution during UWS and DWS processes.The simulation of microstructure agrees well with the experimental results.The mechanism that explains how solutal convection affects side branching behavior is depicted.A novel approach is introduced to characterize dendrite deviation,elucidating the reasons why defects are prone to occur under the influence of natural convection and solute redistribution.

文摘Heavy metal-contaminated sites are primarily treated via solidification and adsorption.Calcium silicate hydrate(C-S-H)is generated during the soil stabilization process and contributes significantly to the strength and durability of the stabilized soil.To understand how the soil moisture content and heavy metal concentration affect the transport of heavy metals and the tensile strength of C-S-H,this study performed molecular dynamics(MD)simulations under different moisture and concentration levels.The results showed that Pb2+presented the highest adsorption to the surface of C-S-H due to its strong electrostatic interaction energy.The adsorption density peaks of Pb2+were 1.5–5 times greater than those of Cd2+and Zn2+.Zn2+and Cd2+ions were more likely to be adsorbed onto water molecules and form a larger hydrated radius than Pb2+.The adsorption of heavy metals onto C-S-H initially increased as the metal concentration increased and then decreased because of the limited sorption sites on C-S-H.The diffusion coefficients of the multicomponent metals in C-S-H showed no consistent trends.The maximum tensile strength of C-S-H decreased with increasing soil moisture and heavy metal concentrations.The tensile stress increased approximately linearly with strain until it reached a peak,after which it gradually declined but remained above zero,indicating good ductility and toughness under unsaturated conditions.These findings offer valuable molecular insights into the interactions between C-S-H and heavy metals and soil moisture,thereby advancing our understanding of their combined effects on soil stabilization.

文摘Hollow engineering plays a crucial role in enhancing interfacial polarization,which is an essential factor in microwave absorption.Herein,an in-situ growth approach was adopted to successively coating C layer and WS_(2) nanosheets on the surface SiO_(2) nanosphere.The obtained results suggested that the formed SiO_(2)@Void@C@WS_(2) multi-component nanocomposites(MCNCs)reveal a representative flower-like yolk-shell structure,which were manufactured massively through a simple channel.Additionally,the obtained SiO_(2)@Void@C@WS_(2) MCNCs presented a more and more obvious yolk-shell structure and reduced WS_(2) content with decreasing the addition of SiO_(2)@C or tungsten and sulfur sources.Because of their distinc-tive structures and remarkable cooperative effects,the SiO_(2)@Void@C@WS_(2) displayed excellent microwave absorption performances.Through the majorization of hollow structure and WS_(2),improved properties of SiO_(2)@Void@C@WS_(2) MCNCs could be acquired owing to their boosted polarization and conductive loss capabilities.Amongst,the resulting SiO_(2)@Void@C@WS_(2) MCNCs exhibited the effective absorption band and minimum reflection loss values of 5.40 GHz and−45.50 dB with matching thicknesses of 1.78 and 1.55 mm,respectively.Therefore,our findings employed hollow engineering and optimization strategies for components to design and fabricate the yolk-shell structure flower-like MCNCs,which acted as highly efficient wide-band microwave absorbing materials.

文摘Face-centered cubic(FCC)-structured multicomponent alloys typically exhibit good ductility but low strength.To simultaneously improve strength and ductility,a multicomponent alloy,Ni_(43.9)Co_(22.4)Fe_(8.8)Al_(10.7)Ti_(11.7)B_(2.5)(at%)with a unique microstructure was developed in this work.The microstructure,which includes 17.8%nanosized L12 precipitates and 26.6%micron-sized annealing twins distributed within~8μm fine FCC grains,was achieved through cryogenic rolling and subsequent annealing.The alloy exhibits a yield strength(YS)of 1063 MPa,ultimate tensile strength(UTS)of 1696 MPa,and excellent elongation of~26%.The L1_(2) precipitates and high-density grain boundaries act as a barrier to the dislocation movement,resulting in a substantial strengthening effect.In addition,the dislocations can cut through the L1_(2) precipitates that are coherent with the FCC matrix,whereas the twin boundaries can effectively absorb and store dislocations,leading to a high work-hardening rate.Furthermore,the stacking faults,Lomer-Cottrell locks,and 9-layer rhombohedral stacking sequence(9R)structures formed during tensile deformation significantly enhance strain hardening by blocking dislocation movement and accumulating dislocations,resulting in excellent comprehensive tensile properties.Theoretical calculations reveal that the grain boundaries,L1_(2)precipitates,and twin boundaries contribute the strengths of 263.8,412.6,and 68.7 MPa,respectively,accounting for 71.9%of the YS.This study introduces a promising strategy for developing multicomponent alloys with significant strength-ductility synergies.

文摘Background Both medication and non-medication therapies are effective approaches to control blood pressure (BP) in hypertension patients.However,the association of joint changes in antihypertensive medication use and healthy lifestyle index (HLI)with BP control among hypertension patients is seldom reported,which needs to provide more evidence by prospective intervention studies.We examined the association of antihypertensive medication use and HLI with BP control among employees with hypertension in China based on a workplace-based multicomponent intervention program.Methods Between January 2013 and December 2014,a cluster randomized clinical trial of a workplace-based multicomponent intervention program was conducted in 60 workplaces across 20 urban areas in China.Workplaces were randomly divided into intervention (n=40) and control (n=20) groups.Basic information on employees at each workplace was collected by trained professionals,including sociodemographic characteristics,medical history,family history,lifestyle behaviors,medication status and physical measurements.After baseline,the intervention group received a 2-year intervention to achieve BP control,which included:(1) a workplace wellness program for all employees;(2) a guidelines-oriented hypertension management protocol.HLI including nonsmoking,nondrinking,adequate physical activity,weight within reference range and balanced diet,were coded on a 5-point scale (range:0-5,with higher score indicating a healthier lifestyle).Antihypertensive medication use was defined as taking drug within the last 2 weeks.Changes in HLI,antihypertensive medication use and BP control from baseline to 24 months were measured after the intervention.Results Overall,4655 employees were included (age:46.3±7.6 years,men:3547 (82.3%)).After 24 months of the intervention,there was a significant improvement in lifestyle[smoking (OR=0.65,95%CI:0.43-0.99;P=0.045),drinking (OR=0.52,95%CI:0.40-0.68;P<0.001),regular exercise (OR=3.10,95%CI:2.53-3.78;P<0.001),excessive intake of fatty food (OR=0.17,95%CI:0.06-0.52;P=0.002),restrictive use of salt (OR=0.26,95%CI:0.12-0.56;P=0.001)].Compare to employees with a deteriorating lifestyle after the intervention,those with an improved lifestyle had a higher BP control.In the intervention group,compared with employees not using antihypertensive medication,those who consistent used (OR=2.34;95%CI:1.16-4.72;P=0.017) or changed from not using to using antihypertensive medication (OR=2.24;95%CI:1.08-4.62;P=0.030) had higher BP control.Compared with those having lower HLI,participants with a same (OR=1.38;95%CI:0.99-1.93;P=0.056) or high (OR=1.79;95%CI:1.27~2.53;P<0.001) HLI had higher BP control.Those who used antihypertensive medication and had a high HLI had the highest BP control (OR=1.88;95%CI:1.32-2.67,P<0.001).Subgroup analysis also showed the consistent effect as the above.Conclusion These findings suggest that adherence to antihypertensive medication treatment and healthy lifestyle were associated with a significant improvement in BP control among employees with hypertension.

文摘In order to quantitively model the real solidification process of industrial multicomponent alloys, a non-isothermal phase field model was studied for multicomponent alloy fully coupled with thermodynamic and diffusion mobility database, which can accurately predict the phase equilibrium, solute diffusion coefficients, specific heat capacity and latent heat release in the whole system. The results show that these parameters are not constants and their values depend on local concentration and temperature. Quantitative simulation of solidification in multicomponent alloys is almost impossible without such parameters available. In this model, the interfacial region is assumed to be a mixture of solid and liquid with the same chemical potentials, but with different composition. The anti-trapping current is also considered in the model. And this model was successfully applied to industrial A1-Cu-Mg alloy for the free equiaxed dendrite solidification process.

文摘We calculate the multicomponent responses of surface-hole transient electromagnetic method. The methods and models are unsuitable as geoelectric models of conductive surrounding rocks because they are based on regular local targets. We also propose a calculation and analysis scheme based on numerical simulations of the subsurface transient electromagnetic fields. In the modeling of the electromagnetic fields, the forward modeling simulations are performed by using the finite-difference time-domain method and the discrete image method, which combines the Gaver–Stehfest inverse Laplace transform with the Prony method to solve the initial electromagnetic fields. The precision in the iterative computations is ensured by using the transmission boundary conditions. For the response analysis, we customize geoelectric models consisting of near-borehole targets and conductive wall rocks and implement forward modeling simulations. The observed electric fields are converted into induced electromotive force responses using multicomponent observation devices. By comparing the transient electric fields and multicomponent responses under different conditions, we suggest that the multicomponent-induced electromotive force responses are related to the horizontal and vertical gradient variations of the transient electric field at different times. The characteristics of the response are determined by the varying the subsurface transient electromagnetic fields, i.e., diffusion, attenuation and distortion, under different conditions as well as the electromagnetic fields at the observation positions. The calculation and analysis scheme of the response consider the surrounding rocks and the anomalous field of the local targets. It therefore can account for the geological data better than conventional transient field response analysis of local targets.

文摘Gaussian beam prestack depth migration is an accurate imaging method of subsurface media. Prestack depth migration of multicomponent seismic data improves the accuracy of imaging subsurface complex geological structures. Viscoelastic prestack depth migration is of practical significance because it considers the viscosity of the subsurface media. We use Gaussian beam migration to compensate for the attenuation in multicomponent seismic data. First, we use the Gaussian beam method to simulate the wave propagation in a viscoelastic medium and introduce the complex velocity Q-related and exact viscoelastic Zoeppritz equation. Second, we discuss PP- and PS-wave Gaussian beam prestack depth migration algorithms for common-shot gathers to derive expressions for the attenuation and compensation. The algorithms correct the amplitude attenuation and phase distortion caused by Q, and realize multicomponent Gaussian beam prestack depth migration based on the attenuation compensation and account for the effect of inaccurate Q on migration. Numerical modeling suggests that the imaging resolution of viscoelastic Gaussian beam prestack depth migration is high when the viscosity of the subsurface is considered.
文摘The absence of low-frequency information in seismic data is one of the most difficult problems in elastic full waveform inversion. Without low-frequency data, it is difficult to recover the long-wavelength components of subsurface models and the inversion converges to local minima. To solve this problem, the elastic envelope inversion method is introduced. Based on the elastic envelope operator that is capable of retrieving low- frequency signals hidden in multicomponent data, the proposed method uses the envelope of multicomponent seismic signals to construct a misfit function and then recover the long- wavelength components of the subsurface model. Numerical tests verify that the elastic envelope method reduces the inversion nonlinearity and provides better starting models for the subsequent conventional elastic full waveform inversion and elastic depth migration, even when low frequencies are missing in multicomponent data and the starting model is far from the true model. Numerical tests also suggest that the proposed method is more effective in reconstructing the long-wavelength components of the S-wave velocity model. The inversion of synthetic data based on the Marmousi-2 model shows that the resolution of conventional elastic full waveform inversion improves after using the starting model obtained using the elastic envelope method. Finally, the limitations of the elastic envelope inversion method are discussed.
