Computation of Large Anisotropic Seismic Heterogeneities (CLASH)     

Éric Beucler  Jean-Paul Montagner 《Geophysical Journal International》2006,165(2):447-468

A general tomographic technique is designed in order (i) to operate in anisotropic media; (ii) to account for the uneven seismic sampling and (iii) to handle massive data sets in a reasonable computing time. One modus operandi to compute a 3-D body wave velocity model relies on surface wave phase velocity measurements. An intermediate step, shared by other approaches, consists in translating, for each period of a given mode branch, the phase velocities integrated along ray paths into local velocity perturbations. To this end, we develop a method, which accounts for the azimuthal anisotropy in its comprehensive form. The weakly non-linear forward problem allows to use a conjugate gradient optimization. The Earth's surface is regularly discretized and the partial derivatives are assigned to the individual grid points. Possible lack of lateral resolution, due to the inescapable uneven ray path coverage, is taken into account through the a priori covariances on parameters with laterally variable correlation lengths. This method allows to efficiently separate the 2ψ and the 4ψ anisotropic effects from the isotropic perturbations. Fundamental mode and overtone phase velocity maps, derived with real Rayleigh wave data sets, are presented and compared with previous maps. The isotropic models concur well with the results of Trampert & Woodhouse. Large 4ψ heterogeneities are located in the tectonically active regions and over the continental lithospheres such as North America, Antarctica or Australia. At various periods, a significant 4ψ signature is correlated with the Hawaii hotspot track. Finally, concurring with the conclusions of Trampert & Woodhouse, our phase velocity maps show that Rayleigh wave data sets do need both 2ψ and 4ψ anisotropic terms.  相似文献

A traveltime reciprocity discrepancy in the Podvin & Lecomte time3d finite difference algorithm     

Ari Tryggvason  Björn Bergman 《Geophysical Journal International》2006,165(2):432-435

We have found that the extensively used finite difference scheme time3d produces time fields which are 'asymmetric' in the sense that traveltimes computed to the right of the source are faster than traveltimes computed to the left. All finite difference schemes will, as they are approximations to the wave equation, to some extent fail to obey reciprocity perfectly. We show, however, that the errors in time3d may be significant—and unnecessarily large. An asymmetry in the point source initialization has been identified, and after correction time3d produces time fields with an improved reciprocity.  相似文献   

大吨位基桩抗压载荷试验中的锚桩预应力保护技术

竖轴向承载力是桩基础设计的重要参数,现场静载试验是目前确定桩基承载力的主要手段之一。本文依托黄陵延安段高速公路洛河特大桥试桩工程,通过对原有工程桩施加预应力,形成了以工程桩为锚桩的锚拔体系。加载过程中试桩应力、锚桩应力及桩顶位移测试,结果表明,结合预应力技术,以工程桩作为锚桩构成桩基础静载试验的锚拔体系是可行的,同时提出了施加预应力大小的原则、方法以及确保后期曾作为锚桩的工程桩有足够承载能力应采取的必要措施。  相似文献

Seismic Hazards Assessment for Radioactive Waste Disposal Sites in Regions of Low Seismic Activity   总被引：4，自引：0，他引：4  

Clark H. Fenton  John Adams  Stephen Halchuk 《Geotechnical and Geological Engineering》2006,24(3):579-592

A comparative tectonic quiescence and lack of earthquakes make the stable centres of continents attractive for siting long-term radioactive waste storage facilities. The low rates of deformation in such regions, however, make it difficult to characterize their long-term seismotectonic behaviour, leading to uncertain estimates for the very low probability hazard estimates required by society. In an attempt to overcome the deficiency of both contemporary seismicity and paleoseismic data in central Canada, we have used earthquake histories from regions with similar seismotectonic characteristics from around the world. Substituting space for time, we estimate a long-term rate per 10⁶ km² of 0.004 magnitude ≥6 earthquakes per annum, of which 33–100% might rupture to the surface.  相似文献
