As a new geophysical exploration technology, nuclear magnetic resonance detection method has been used to detect water inrush in underground buildings in the past decade. Due to its direct sensitivity to water molecules, non-invasive nuclear magnetic resonance detection technology has important significance in preventing water inrush disasters in tunnels. Previous research results show that this technology has the ability to directly and quantitatively track water in tunnels, so as to effectively prevent tunnel water inrush accidents.

[0040] The present application will be further described in detail below in combination with the drawings and embodiments:
[0041] The present application is a tunnel magnetic resonance and transient electromagnetic joint inversion method based on the Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithm, and the method comprises the following steps:
[0042] S1, using a magnetic resonance and transient electromagnetic combination instrument, placing the instrument at the tunnel face for detection, and obtaining observation data of water-bearing structures in front of the tunnel face;
[0043] S2, using Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithm to invert the collected data to obtain the stratum resistivity, water content distribution and interface position information in front of the tunnel face, and the probability distribution of these inversion parameters;
[0044] The inversion result of the Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithm is more accurate than the single inversion method of magnetic resonance or transient electromagnetic method, and can give the uncertainty and correlation analysis result of the stratum resistivity in front of the tunnel face, the resistivity layer interface position, and the stratum water content and water content layer interface position.
[0045] As shown in Figure 1 In step S1, the magnetic resonance and transient electromagnetic combined instrument is placed at the tunnel face for detection to obtain and record the magnetic resonance and transient electromagnetic observation data at the tunnel face, wherein the magnetic resonance and transient electromagnetic combined instrument is a small-sized magnetic resonance and transient electromagnetic combined detection system suitable for tunnel detection, adopts an overlapping loop configuration, and the transmitting system outputs a transmitting signal by abutting against the tunnel face, and the receiving system synchronously collects observation signal data;
[0046] In the embodiment of the application, the tunnel model is set as a model of 25 meters in front of and behind the tunnel face, and there is a low-resistance water-bearing structure between 5 meters and 20 meters in front of the tunnel face, corresponding to a water content of 70% and a resistivity of 20 Ωm, and the remaining strata are relatively high-resistance, with a resistivity of 130 Ωm from 0 meters to 5 meters and a resistivity of 200 Ωm from 20 meters to 25 meters. The above-mentioned magnetic resonance and transient electromagnetic combined system is used to detect the tunnel, with a transmitting side length of 6 meters, 5 turns, a transmitting current of 10 A, and random noise of 10 nV is added, and the model forward observation signal is as shown in Figure 3 ;
[0047] The collected data is inverted and explained by using the Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithm, and the algorithm flowchart is as shown in Figure 2 , including the following specific steps:
[0048] Prior distribution and initial model:
[0049] In the tunnel magnetic resonance and transient electromagnetic combined inversion, the inversion parameters include water content, resistivity and their layer interface and number. The prior probability distribution of the water content, resistivity and their layer interface is set as a uniform distribution in the corresponding interval, wherein the layer interface position interval is [-25, 25] with the unit of m, the water content interval is [0, 100%], and the resistivity interval is [0, 600] with the unit of Ωm. After setting the prior distribution, the initial model is generated from the prior distribution.
[0050] Selecting a candidate model:
[0051] The selection of candidate model depends on proposal distribution. According to the no aftereffect of Markov chain, the generation of candidate model is only related to current model and has nothing to do with previous model parameters. The proposal distribution can be expressed as:
[0052] ,
[0053] Wherein and represent the current model and candidate model respectively, and represent the current water content layer interface and candidate water content layer interface position respectively, and represent the current resistivity layer interface and candidate resistivity layer interface position respectively, and represent the current water content and candidate water content respectively, and represent the current resistivity and candidate resistivity respectively. , , and represent the proposal distribution of water content layer interface position, resistivity layer interface position, water content and resistivity respectively. The layer interface proposal distribution satisfies two states:
[0054] Layer interface disturbance: randomly advance a layer interface, make it randomly disturbed between adjacent two layer interfaces, with probability .
[0055] Layer interface invariable: with probability .
[0056] The water content and resistivity proposal distribution is set to normal distribution with current water content and resistivity as mean value:
[0057] , ,
[0058] Wherein is the variance of normal distribution, which affects the step length of sampling to some extent.
[0059] Accept or reject the candidate model,
[0060] When the candidate model is obtained by sampling, the next step of Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithm is to decide whether to accept the candidate model by acceptance probability , The calculation formula is:
[0061] ,
[0062] In the formula, The probability ratio of jumping from the candidate model to the current model and jumping from the current model to the candidate model, The ratio of the candidate model to the current model likelihood function.
[0063] The Markov Chain Monte Carlo algorithm likelihood function is used to calculate the fitting degree between the model data and the real data. In the field of geophysical exploration, the data noise obeys the Gaussian distribution, and is independent of each other with each inversion parameter. The likelihood function is defined as a multi-dimensional normal distribution:
[0064] ,
[0065] Wherein, The number of observation data, The measured data, The given model of the magnetic resonance and transient electromagnetic joint forward response, The data covariance matrix, The matrix corresponding determinant. When the data does not satisfy the normal distribution, the Laplace distribution is used to represent:
[0066] ,
[0067] Finally generate a random number between [0, 1] If is less than the acceptance probability , the transition is accepted, otherwise rejected. According to the above method, the model is updated and sampled continuously until the iteration number is reached to terminate the algorithm.
[0068] The tunnel model inversion result is shown in Figure 4 It can be concluded that the water content corresponding to the maximum probability in the inversion result and the position information of the layer interface are basically consistent with the set model. All accepted models fluctuate around the set model. Further according to the Markov Chain Monte Carlo inversion result, the uncertainty and correlation of the model water-bearing layer interface position and the model water content are obtained, as shown in Figure 5 .
[0069] According to the Markov Chain Monte Carlo inversion result, the information of the water content and the position of the layer interface can be accurately judged, and their uncertainty and correlation can also be obtained. Therefore, the Markov Chain Monte Carlo inversion algorithm can relatively comprehensively invert the tunnel magnetic resonance and transient electromagnetic data, and more accurately give the position of the water-bearing layer, providing protection for the safety construction of the tunnel project.
