Geophysical methods that are well-suited for site-specific investigation and have robustly anti-interference capabilities can provide important geological information for urban areas. In support of investigating the 3D geological structure of the shallow subsurface in Chengdu International Bio-City, a geophysical exploration study was conducted using three methods: the electrical resistivity tomography (ERT), micro-seismic exploration, and opposing-coil transient electromagnetic method (OCTEM). Results from the study showed that the ERT method was greatly affected by local high-resistance bodies, construction sites, and industrial currents, therefore leading to poor detection results that did not match well with the area's layered structure characteristics. The micro-seismic exploration method showed good layering effects and correlation with the drilling data in the elevation range of approximately 350 m to 436 m, but poor layering effects and low correlation with drilling data in the elevation range of about 235 m to 350 m, with relatively slow construction efficiency. The OCTEM showed good correlation with the drilling data for shallow depths up to 200 m and good identification capabilities for gypsum and mudstone in the area. Additionally, the instrument's anti-interference ability was suitable for complex urban conditions. Thus, OCTEM was selected for the area-based exploration with a 100 m × 10 m grid, rapidly obtaining 3D resistivity information for depths up to 200 m in the study area. By integrating the 3D resistivity information with known engineering geological information, a comprehensive three-dimensional geological model of the study area was created.","PeriodicalId":54820,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Geophysics and Engineering","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2023-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43308668","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Under the same condition, the FD coefficients with small low-wavenumber dispersion error will produce a more accurate numerical solution in the long-time seismic wave simulation. Thus, how to reduce the low-wavenumber dispersion error becomes a crucial problem. According to the research of zero point position at the dispersion curve for three types of cost functions, we found that the more zero points concentrate on the low-wavenumber region, the less dispersion error. Therefore, the concentration of zero points is a good way to reduce dispersion error, which can be implemented by modified wavenumbers of zero points. Then, we design a Lagrange dual problem with a restriction based on the modified wavenumbers. The Requirements for constructing the Lagrange dual problem are the optimization function and restricted condition, where the former is based on the dispersion relation, and the latter comprises the modified wavenumbers. The solution of this optimization problem, calculated by the dual ascent method, affords a less low-wavenumber dispersion error than the solution yielded by the alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM). The theoretical analysis and numerical modeling suggest that the proposed method is superior to the existing optimal FD coefficients in reducing numerical error accumulation in low-frequency simulation.","PeriodicalId":54820,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Geophysics and Engineering","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2023-06-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41978762","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The smooth conductivity model produced by Occam's inversion cannot accurately represent the information of the subterranean thin resistive layers, leading to erroneous inversion findings. The existing thin resistive layers’ inversion method sets the model constraint term at the thin resistive layers to 0, resulting in abrupt changes in resistivity values. Given the above problems, we proposed an adaptive roughness matrix calculation method to improve the thin, lowly resistive-layer resolution. The resistivity difference between neighboring layers of the updated inversion model determines the roughness matrix, allowing for the realization of adaptive inversion of the thin layer. It achieves semi-airborne transient electromagnetic enhanced adaptive thin-layer inversion and automatically manages the model constraint term. The calculation of the synthetic model demonstrates that the improved adaptive thin-layer inversion method does not need to know the thin, lowly resistive layers information in advance. The model can produce appropriate inversion results regardless of the presence of thin, lowly-resistive layers. Finally, the drilling results are consistent with the inversed appearance of the semi-airborne transient electromagnetic field data. Other geophysical adaptive thin resistive layers inversion can also benefit from this research's findings.","PeriodicalId":54820,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Geophysics and Engineering","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2023-06-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"61718825","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, these uncertainties significantly impact structural mapping and interpretation of seismic imaging results. On the other hand, Bayesian first-arrival tomography provides multiple near-surface models that fit observed traveltimes equally well and enable the study of potential solution distributions. We demonstrate this approach on a complex synthetic near-surface model, representative of arid environments, to quantify associated velocity and statics uncertainties. We evaluate two different parameterizations for subsurface velocities in the context of near-surface Bayesian tomography: Voronoi tessellation with natural neighbor interpolation and the more conventional Delaunay triangulation with linear interpolation. Our analysis shows that the Voronoi cell parameterization with natural neighbor interpolation is more appropriate for this problem. Finally, the new approach is applied to compare two alternative acquisition geometries comprising conventional surface receivers and surface receivers augmented with vertical receiver arrays. The results demonstrate that adding vertical receiver arrays to conventional surface receivers can significantly reduce the near-surface velocity uncertainty and thus increases the accuracy of the seismic imaging results. Furthermore, the study shows that Bayesian tomography can be used as a tool for evaluating different source and receiver geometries during the acquisition design stage.","PeriodicalId":54820,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Geophysics and Engineering","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2023-06-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46769254","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Conventional denoising mainly comprises filtering and gate correlation-based decomposition algorithms; the former fails to extract anomalies contaminated by noise and the latter relies on the correlation between gates, which may yield false late gate anomalies caused by early large-amplitude anomalies in early gates. In ATEM profiles, the correlation between anomalies in adjacent gates makes the anomalies to be measured to have low-rank characteristics relative to the noise-contaminated profiles; the noise is uniformly distributed in the profiles, which have nonlocal self-similarity. Therefore, the low-rank matrix approximation algorithm is applicable to ATEM data denoising. In this study, an algorithm—noise-whitening-based weighted nuclear norm minimization (NW-WNNM)—is designed to remove ATEM profile noise. First, we analyse the influence of patch size in block matching on anomalous and noisy patches and estimate the profile patch size adaptively. Then, we combine the estimation of noise variance in weighted nuclear norm minimization (WNNM) with the noise whitening of similar patch matrices to reduce the noise interference on the nuclear norm and add a whitening factor in the weight vector to make the soft-thresholding function applicable to the low-rank reconstruction of the whitened matrix. By analysing the reconstructed low-rank matrix and its feature distribution, compared with WNNM, NW-WNNM can detect the feature information more accurately and eliminate the influence of noise on the nuclear norm. Simulation and field profile results indicate that NW-WNNM is superior to comparison denoising methods.","PeriodicalId":54820,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Geophysics and Engineering","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2023-06-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45795868","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, the boundary points of the voids are determined by combining reflection and attenuation coefficients, and the geometric features are constructed to identify the voids. Depending on the electromagnetic differences between the void and other mediums in the lining, when the electromagnetic wave propagates from the lining concrete to the void, the reflection coefficient is positive, and the phase of the reflected wave is the same as the incident wave. Conversely, the phase of the reflected wave is opposite to the incident wave. Therefore, the boundary point can be determined in the one dimension time-waveform diagram (A-Scan) based on the phase change. Moreover, the amplitude of the electromagnetic wave attenuates exponentially in the concrete, but it attenuates slowly in the void. And electromagnetic waves exhibit high-frequency characteristics in the lining but low-frequency characteristics in the voids. Boundary points that conform to the variation of amplitude and frequency characteristics in the void are screened. These boundary points are then constructed in two-dimensional scan data (B-Scan) to identify the voids by using the geometry of the voids. This method is applied to the Hu Sa tunnel.

In this paper, a pure anisotropic acoustic wave equation in a vertical transverse isotropic (VTI) medium that can be numerically computed using the efficient finite difference method is derived. This equation not only eliminates noise interference and numerical simulation instabilities, but also allows for efficient wavefield simulation.
