A methodology to locate automatically limits or boundaries between different geological bodies in 2D electrical tomography is proposed, using a crest line extraction process in gradient images. This method is applied on several synthetic models and on field data set acquired on three experimental sites during the European project PALEOSIS where trenches were dug. The results presented in this work are valid for electrical tomographies data collected with a Wenner-alpha array and computed with an l₁ norm (blocky inversion) as optimization method. For the synthetic cases, three geometric contexts are modelled: a vertical and a dipping fault juxtaposing two different geological formations and a step-like structure. A superficial layer can cover each geological structure. In these three situations, the method locates the synthetic faults and layer boundaries, and determines fault displacement but with several limitations. The estimated fault positions correlate exactly with the synthetic ones if a conductive (or no superficial) layer overlies the studied structure. When a resistive layer with a thickness of 6 m covers the model, faults are positioned with a maximum error of 1 m. Moreover, when a resistive and/or a thick top layer is present, the resolution significantly decreases for the fault displacement estimation (error up to 150%). The tests with the synthetic models for surveys using the Wenner-alpha array indicate that the proposed methodology is best suited to vertical and horizontal contacts. Application of the methodology to real data sets shows that a lateral resistivity contrast of 1:5–1:10 leads to exact faults location. A fault contact with a resistivity contrast of 1:0.75 and overlaid by a resistive layer with a thickness of 1 m gives an error location ranging from 1 to 3 m. Moreover, no result is obtained for a contact with very low contrasts (1:0.85) overlaid by a resistive soil. The method shows poor results when vertical gradients are greater than horizontal ones. This kind of image processing technique should be systematically used for improving the objectiveness of tomography interpretation when looking for limits between geological objects.  相似文献   

Crust and upper mantle structure of the Ailao Shan-Red River fault zone and adjacent regions   总被引：4，自引：1，他引：4

Using arrival data of the body waves recorded by seismic stations, we reconstructed the velocity structure of the crust and upper mantle beneath the southeastern edge of the Tibetan Plateau and the northwestern continental margin of the South China Sea through a travel time tomography technique. The result revealed the apparent tectonic variation along the Ailao Shan-Red River fault zone and its adjacent regions. High velocities are observed in the upper and middle crust beneath the Ailao Shan-Red River fault zone and they reflect the character of the fast uplifting and cooling of the metamorphic belt after the ductile shearing of the fault zone, while low velocities in the lower crust and near the Moho imply a relatively active crust-mantle boundary beneath the fault zone. On the west of the fault zone, the large-scale low velocities in the uppermost mantle beneath western Yunnan prove the influence of the mantle heat flow on volcano, hot spring and magma activities, however, the upper mantle on the eas  相似文献

拉萨地体内低速异常成因的探讨--壳内局部熔融的地震层析证据   总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2       下载免费PDF全文

青藏高原南部天然地震体波的层析反演图像描绘出拉萨地体内在15～90km深度内低速异常的分布特征。在研究速度结构的基础上，根据熔融程度与纵波波速呈倒数衰减的特性，论证了拉萨地体中低速体的出现与壳内的局部熔融有关。壳内局部熔融则来源于板块俯冲、地壳增厚产生的热而非幔源侵入所造成。同时，也发现了在拉萨以东中下地壳低速体有向东发展的趋势。大面积部分熔融层分布的深度范围约在15～35km处。另外，据藏南地区的SKS波分裂时间延迟很小的特点，推测藏南地幔中可能不存在各向异性，也就是没有足够的热源使各向异性矿物的品格重新定位。这从另一方面佐证了部分熔融仅存在于地壳内而不是地幔中。  相似文献   

基于混合罚函数法的多尺度电离层层析确权方法     

余龙飞  胡伍生  韩理想  郑敦勇 《测绘学报》2016,45(Z2):156-164

在利用GNSS进行像素基电离层层析时,多尺度层析方法利用权重因子将反演区域不同像素层析模型结合在一起,最终得到电离层电子密度反演结果,可以有效地解决电离层层析过程中不适应问题和最终的电离层电子密度失真现象。在多尺度电离层层析中,不同像素尺度层析模型之间权重是影响最终的电离层电子密度精度的重要因素。为了获得高精度电离层层析模型,考虑到权重因子存在着等式和不等式限制条件,采用解决最优化问题的罚函数法确定不同像素尺度电离层层析模型之间的权重。通过采用实测GNSS观测数据进行电离层多尺度电离层层析,对比了多尺度层析模型的各个子模型建模精度并进行分析,同时将罚函数法获得的模型精度与其他确权方法进行了对比,该方法可以有效地应用于多尺电离层度层析,且最终的层析模型精度优于其他确权方法,更优于单尺度电离层层析模型精度。  相似文献   

Investigation of a longfin inshore squid's swimming characteristics and an underwater locomotion during acceleration     

《Applied Ocean Research》2016

In the present study, locomotion of a real longfin inshore squid (Doryteuthis pealeii) was numerically investigated. Geometry of a real squid was obtained using computed tomography (CT) images. In addition to a two-dimensional axisymmetric squid model, a modified squid model with no cavities around her head and an ellipse shaped model were generated with a fineness ratio (the ratio of body length to maximum body diameter) of 7.56. These numerical models were exposed to an acceleration with two different velocity programs. Added mass and basset forces on bodies were calculated during acceleration of the squid models starting from rest. Pressure and viscous drag forces were also calculated due to pressure variation along the squid models and friction on the surface of the models. The effect of a nozzle diameter on jet velocities and propulsive efficiency at all bodies were evaluated when time dependent velocity profiles (from 0 to 10 m/s in 0.5 and 1 s time durations) were set for the inlet of computational domain. The modified squid model required least thrust force during acceleration phase of time dependent velocity profile compared to the other models while the 0.02 m nozzle diameter provided largest propulsive efficiency for all models.  相似文献
