双相各向异性介质中偶数阶精度有限差分数值模拟

To improve the accuracy of the conventional finite-difference method, finitedifference numerical modeling methods of any even-order accuracy are recommended. We introduce any even-order accuracy difference schemes of any-order derivatives derived from Taylor series expansion. Then, a finite-difference numerical modeling method with any evenorder accuracy is utilized to simulate seismic wave propagation in two-phase anisotropic media. Results indicate that modeling accuracy improves with the increase of difference accuracy order number. It is essential to find the optimal order number, grid size, and time step to balance modeling precision and computational complexity. Four kinds of waves, static mode in the source point, SV wave cusps, reflection and transmission waves are observed in two-phase anisotropic media through modeling.     

Accuracy of elastic finite differences in smooth media

The accuracy of finite-difference schemes of the 2nd and 4th order in 2-D and 3-D regular rectangular grids is studied. The method of designing the schemes and estimating their accuracy is proposed. The paper is devoted to the point schemes, expressed in terms of the discretized (point) values of the wave field and material parameters. Only the common schemes applicable in smooth parts of seismic models, outside structural interfaces, are taken into account. Finite differences at structural interfaces are studied elsewhere.The inaccuracy of finite-difference schemes is governed, above all, by the error in the phase velocity, caused by discretization. This error is estimated for several finite-difference schemes. It is explicitly dependent on the direction of propagation and on wave polarization. The maximum phase-velocity error over all directions of propagation enables the accuracy of the individual schemes to be appreciated in order to select the best one. The proposed approach is general and applicable to other finite-difference schemes, for example, of the 6th and higher orders.

求解二阶解耦弹性波方程的低秩分解法和低秩有限差分法

时间域的波场延拓方法在本质上都可以归结为对一个空间-波数域算子的近似.本文基于一阶波数-空间混合域象征,提出一种新的方法求解解耦的二阶位移弹性波方程.该方法采用交错网格,连续使用两次一阶前向和后向拟微分算子,推导得到了解耦的二阶位移弹性波方程的波场延拓算子.由于该混合域象征在伪谱算子的基础上增加了一个依赖于速度模型的补偿项,可以补偿由于采用二阶中心差分计算时间微分项带来的误差,有效地减少模拟结果的数值频散,提高模拟精度.然而,在非均匀介质中,直接计算该二阶的波场延拓算子,每一个时间步上需要做N次快速傅里叶逆变换,其中N是总的网格点数.为了减少计算量,提出了交错网格低秩分解方法;针对常规有限差分数值频散问题,本文将交错网格低秩方法与有限差分法结合,提出了交错网格低秩有限差分法.数值结果表明,交错网格低秩方法和交错网格低秩有限差分法具有较高的精度,对于复杂介质的地震波数值模拟和偏移成像具有重要的价值.

基于Chebyshev自褶积组合窗的有限差分算子优化方法

有限差分法广泛应用于地震波数值模拟、成像和波形反演中,差分数值解的精度直接影响着地震成像和反演的效果.因为有限差分算子可以通过截断伪谱法的空间褶积序列得到,而截断窗函数的属性影响有限差分算子逼近微分算子的精度.具体地讲,窗函数的幅值响应的主瓣和旁瓣决定了有限差分算子逼近的精度,主瓣越窄,旁瓣衰减越大,则有限差分算子逼近微分算子的精度越高,更好地压制数值频散.基于此认识,本文提出了一种基于Chebyshev自褶积组合窗截断逼近的有限差分算子优化方法.Chebyshev自褶积组合窗的主瓣较窄,且旁瓣衰减大,其可通过只调节三个参数,更直观和可视化地控制主瓣和旁瓣的形状,改变有限差分算子逼近微分算子的精度;该窗函数截断逼近的有限差分算子不仅有较大的谱覆盖范围,而且精度误差波动较小,这表明低阶的差分算子可以达到高阶算子的精度,且逼近误差更稳定;从经济上来讲,将有效地减少模拟计算花费,提高计算效率.     

Stability and accuracy of waterhammer analysis

The first-order accurate explicit finite-difference scheme based on the method of characteristics (MOC) has been widely used for the analysis of waterhammer in pipelines. For the stability of this scheme, the Courant condition has been developed by neglecting the nonlinear terms. When the friction loss term is large, this scheme becomes unstable even if the Courant stability is satisfied. In this paper, the stability and accuracy including friction are investigated by systematically analyzing typical piping systems over a wide range of parameters and empirical stability limits are presented for practical applications. In addition, the suitability of the implicit finite difference method for transient analysis is investigated.

Approaches to develop the stable formulas which are of 2M-order accuracy in both time and space with M being a positive integer for regular grids are discussed and illustrated by constructing the second order (M = 1) and the fourth order (M = 2) recursion formulas.     

Numerical simulation of seismic wavefields in TTI media using the rotated staggered-grid compact finite-difference scheme

Numerical simulation in transverse isotropic media with tilted symmetry axis(TTI) using the standard staggered-grid finite-difference scheme(SSG)results in errors caused by averaging or interpolation. In order to eliminate the errors, a method of rotated staggered-grid finite-difference scheme(RSG) is proposed. However, the RSG brings serious numerical dispersion. The compact staggered-grid finite-difference scheme(CSG) is an implicit difference scheme, which use fewer grid points to suppress dispersion more effectively than the SSG. This paper combines the CSG with the RSG to derive a rotated staggered-grid compact finite-difference scheme(RSGC). The numerical experiments indicate that the RSGC has weaker numerical dispersion and better accuracy than the RSG.

Seismic modeling with an optimal staggered-grid finite-difference scheme based on combining Taylor-series expansion and minimax approximation

Staggered-grid finite-difference (SGFD) schemes have been used widely in seismic modeling. The spatial difference coefficients of the SGFD scheme are generally determined by a Taylor-series expansion (TE) method or optimization methods. However, high accuracy is hardly guaranteed both at small and large wavenumbers by using these conventional methods. We propose a new optimal SGFD scheme based on combining TE and minimax approximation (MA) for high accuracy modeling. The optimal spatial SGFD coefficients are calculated by applying a combination of TE and MA to the dispersion relation, where the implementation of the MA method is based on a Remez algorithm. We adopt the optimal SGFD coefficients to solve first-order spatial derivatives of the elastic wave equations and then perform numerical modeling. Dispersion analyses and seismic modeling show the advantage of the proposed optimal method. The optimal SGFD scheme has greater accuracy than the TE-based SGFD scheme for the same spatial difference operator length. In addition, the optimal SGFD scheme can also adopt a shorter operator length to achieve the high accuracy reducing the computational cost.     

探地雷达三维高阶时域有限差分法模拟研究

探地雷达数值模拟中,时域有限差分法在时间和空间上一般采用二阶精度的中心差分近似(FDTD(2,2)),其形式简单,但数值色散误差较大,在复杂模型模拟时不能很好地反映模型的精细变化.高阶时域有限差分法能很好地改善数值色散带来的误差,提高模拟精度.本文基于三维高阶时域有限差分法的基本原理实现了探地雷达正演模拟,采用单轴各向异性完全匹配层(UPML)作为吸收边界条件,可以有效地吸收外向传播的电磁波,在大大地提高计算效率的同时,也能很好地改善边界的吸收效果.分析对比正演模拟结果,通过三维高阶时域有限差分正演能获得目标体准确电磁响应信息,并能很好的提高模拟精度.     

Seismic wavefield modelling in two-phase media including undulating topography with the modified Biot/squirt model by a curvilinear-grid finite difference method

In this paper, we deduced the corresponding first-order velocity–stress equation for curvilinear coordinates from the first-order velocity–stress equation based on the modified Biot/squirt model for a two-dimensional two-phase medium. The equations are then numerically solved by an optimized high-order non-staggered finite difference scheme, that is, the dispersion relation preserving/optimization MacCormack scheme. To implement undulating free-surface topography, we derive an analytical relationship between the derivatives of the particle velocity components and use the compact finite-difference scheme plus a traction-image method. In the undulating free surface and the undulating subsurface interface of two-phase medium, the complex reflected wave and transmitted wave can be clearly recognized in the numerical simulation results. The simulation results show that the curvilinear-grid finite-difference method, which uses a body-conforming grid to describe the undulating surface, can accurately reduce the numerical scattering effect of seismic wave propagation caused by the use of ladder-shaped grid to fit the surfaces when undulating topography is present in a two-phase isotropic medium.
