In a two-layer fluid with the upper layer having a free surface, there exist two modes of waves propagating at both the free surface of the upper layer and the interface between the two layers. Due to a wave train of a particular mode incident on an obstacle which is bottom-standing on the lower layer, reflected and transmitted waves of both modes are created by the obstacle. For small undulations on the bottom of the lower layer, a perturbation method is employed to obtain first-order reflection and transmission coefficients of both modes for incident wave trains of again both modes in terms of integrals involving the bed-shape fimction. For sinusoidal undulations, numerical results are presented graphically to illustrate the energy transfer between the waves of different modes by the undulating bed.展开更多

It is the image method that has undergone much research in seismology. All extrapolation operators face the problem of choosing the reference velocity due to continuation in depth. The wavefield extrapolation operator with a single reference velocity is suitable for media with weak lateral variation. The multi-reference velocity extrapolation operator can cope with severe lateral velocity variations and improve image accuracy. However, the calculation cost is large. We present a self-adaptive approach to automatically determine the number of selected reference velocities according to the complexity of structure and the given velocity threshold value. The approach can be used to construct the SSF, FFD, WXFD, and GSP multi-reference velocity wavefield extrapolation image algorithms. The result of a salt-dome model data test demonstrates that the self-adoptive multi-reference wavefield extrapolation algorithm has the ability to deal with severe lateral velocity variations and can also be used for structure edge detection. The method is flexible and computationally cost-effective.展开更多
