Abstract:A 2D algorithm for angle-domain common-image gather (CIG) calculation is extended and modified to produce 3D elastic angle and azimuth CIGs. The elastic seismic data are propagated with the elastic particle displacement wave equation, and then the PP-reflected and PS-converted waves are separated by divergence and curl calculations during application of the excitation-time imaging condition. The incident angles and azimuths are calculated using source propagation directions and the reflector normals. The sourc… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
