Wavefield Separation Of P- And S-Waves Based On Modified Pseudo-Helmholtz Decomposition Operator In Transverse Isotropic Media, Liu Zhaoshun, Du Qizhen, Lyu Wenhao, Zhou Shihao, Fu Liyun

Coal Geology & Exploration

The separation of P- and S-wave fields is a significant step in elastic reverse-time migration (ERTM), which can effectively eliminate the waveform crosstalk and image artifacts, thus improving the precision of imaging. In anisotropic media, nonstationary spatial filters or low-rank approximation methods are commonly used to separate the wavefields. However, the application of multiple Fourier transforms results in the high computation costs of the above wavefield separation methods. Based on the idea of constructing the isotropic decoupling equations of P- and S- waves with the Helmholtz operator, a modified pseudo-Helmholtz decomposition operator was proposed to eliminate the amplitude distortion.

Inversion Of Self-Potential Data Based On Improved Sparrow Search Algorithm, Lang Jianxiang, Tang Hongzhi, Ai Hanbing

Coal Geology & Exploration

Self-potential (SP) method is a natural source geophysical prospecting technology with low cost and simple operation for field observation. Generally, the inversion of SP data has the characteristics of ill-posedness and non-linearity. The conventional inversion algorithms are classified into the types of local optimization and global search. However, it is hard for the gradient-based local optimization algorithm to obtain the global optimal solution, and the inversion results are dependent on the construction of initial model. The traditional global search algorithm has the disadvantages of low convergence rate, insufficient ability of escaping local minima and instability. Thus, a new global optimization …

Forward Modeling Of Radio-Magnetotelluric Method Based On Julia Acceleration And Study On Effect Of Displacement Current, Mei Zhuxu, Yuan Yuan, Zhou Feng, Zhou Cong, Zhang Lincheng

Coal Geology & Exploration

Radio-magnetotelluric method (RMT) is one of the important tools for shallow surface electromagnetic exploration. Since the exploration frequency band is 10‒300 kHz, the propagation of electromagnetic fields is greatly affected by the dielectric permittivity of the earth. The electromagnetic response calculated with traditional quasi-static conditions severely restricts the accuracy of RMT forward modeling and further affects the resolution of the inversion imaging. In response to this problem, a numerical simulation method of full-current RMT electromagnetic response based on Julia parallel acceleration was proposed. Then, the calculation of each frequency point was sent through the distributed computing in Julia to different …
