Paraniso 1.0: 3-D Full Waveform Seismic Simulation in General Anisotropic Media
- Sandia National Lab. (SNL-NM), Albuquerque, NM (United States)
Many geologic materials and minerals are seismically anisotropic, with the most general anisotropic material having up to 21 independent elastic coefficients. This report outlines the development of a 3-D, generally anisotropic, linear elastic full waveform finite-difference solver. First, a mathematical description of the solution equations will be described. The finite-difference implementation of these equations will then be shown. Finally, a comparison of results from this new solver to other solutions will be provided as verification that the new algorithm can accurately replicate these solutions.
