Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of geophysical exploration technology and relates to a method and system for joint inversion of tunnel seismic and electrical methods based on structural constraints. Background Technology
[0002] The statements in this section are merely background information related to the present invention and do not necessarily constitute prior art.
[0003] To reveal the structure and physical property distribution of subsurface media, various geophysical methods, including gravity, magnetometry, seismic, and electrical methods, are increasingly being used in exploration. Each method utilizes its observational data, relying on different geophysical properties to infer subsurface structures and reflect specific physical properties of subsurface materials, each with its own advantages and disadvantages. Seismic and electrical methods are two important geophysical exploration methods; however, with increasing exploration depth and environmental complexity, the effective information obtained by a single geophysical method is limited and often faces the problem of insufficient data volume, leading to potential multiple solutions in inversion methods.
[0004] Joint inversion, a significant trend in the field of geophysical inversion, integrates multiple exploration methods and geophysical observation data to effectively suppress inversion ambiguity and obtain more accurate subsurface medium information. Joint inversion based on structural similarity includes methods based on model curvature information, cross gradients, model gradient point products, and local correlations. Cross gradients, as an effective means of joint inversion, do not rely on prior physical property information, have strong applicability, and are currently a research hotspot. Furthermore, utilizing prior information to provide better initial models for wave velocity and resistivity models in both numerical and structural aspects can effectively improve the results of joint inversion.
[0005] Currently, there are two main challenges in achieving joint seismic and electrical inversion of tunnels based on structural constraints:
[0006] The quality of seismic and electrical resistivity inversions heavily relies on artificially set initial models. However, it is difficult to provide a good initial model that includes large-scale structures in tunnel exploration, making the inversion process prone to getting trapped in local extrema. Utilizing numerical and structural information from geological survey data, pre-drilled boreholes, and pilot tunnels to provide a good initial model for tunnel inversion is fundamental to achieving joint inversion.
[0007] Post-processing for seismic inversion and electrical resistivity inversion with different detection distances is crucial. Current joint inversion methods often only invert the common detection space of different detection methods, failing to utilize the joint inversion results for methods with larger detection distances for further optimization. Achieving global optimization of detection methods with different detection distances is a problem that must be solved to improve the overall effectiveness of joint inversion. Summary of the Invention
[0008] To address the aforementioned problems, this invention proposes a method and system for joint inversion of tunnel seismic and electrical methods based on structural constraints. This invention can optimize the full waveform inversion of tunnels and improve the effect of joint inversion.
[0009] According to some embodiments, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0010] A joint seismic and electrical inversion method for tunnels based on structural constraints includes the following steps:
[0011] Construct resistivity and wave velocity models for different detection distances;
[0012] Seismic and electrical inversions were performed separately, and structural constraint terms were calculated for the joint inversion region of the resistivity model and wave velocity model based on the inversion results.
[0013] Based on the characteristics of structural constraints, different coefficients are set for the structural constraint terms to balance the data terms and structural constraint terms, resulting in the final structural constraint terms. These are then alternately added to the loss functions of seismic and electrical methods to obtain joint inversion results based on structural constraints.
[0014] As an alternative implementation, the specific process of constructing resistivity models and wave velocity models with different detection distances includes generating corresponding three-dimensional tunnel resistivity models and three-dimensional tunnel velocity models based on the different actual detection distances. The detection distance of the three-dimensional tunnel resistivity model is smaller than the actual detection distance, and the detection distance of the three-dimensional tunnel velocity model is larger than the actual detection distance.
[0015] As an alternative implementation, the resistivity model and the wave velocity model have the same cross-sectional scale, and the same length as the resistivity model is selected in the longitudinal scale as the joint inversion region.
[0016] As an alternative implementation, the specific process for calculating structural constraint terms in the joint inversion region includes performing separate seismic and electrical inversions, calculating a cross gradient term function for the joint inversion region based on the inversion results, wherein the function is the product of the gradients of velocity and resistivity, and calculating the structural constraint term function based on the cross gradient term function.
[0017] Furthermore, the cross gradient term function is:

[0022] As an alternative implementation method, the specific process of setting different coefficients for structural constraint terms to balance data terms and structural constraint terms includes setting weight coefficients for structural constraint terms based on the characteristics of structural constraints. These weight coefficients are adaptive weighting factors, selected according to the difference in magnitude between data terms and structural constraint terms, thereby balancing the influence of structural constraint terms and data fitting terms.
[0023] As an alternative implementation, the method also includes using the results of the joint inversion as the initial model for the overall wave velocity model, and further optimizing the wave velocity model for the non-common region.
[0024] A structurally constrained joint seismic and electrical method inversion system for tunnels includes:
[0025] The model building module is configured to construct resistivity and wave velocity models for different detection distances;
[0026] The constraint module is configured to perform separate seismic and electrical method inversions, and calculate structural constraint terms for the joint inversion region of the resistivity model and wave velocity model based on its inversion results.
[0027] The joint inversion module is configured to set different coefficients for the structural constraint terms based on the characteristics of structural constraints, so as to balance the data terms and structural constraint terms and obtain the final structural constraint terms. These are then alternately added to the loss functions of seismic and electrical methods to obtain the joint inversion results based on structural constraints.

[0030] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:
[0031] 1. Based on prior information, numerical and structural information provided by geological survey data, advanced boreholes, and advanced pilot tunnels can provide a reliable initial model for seismic and electrical inversion. The large-scale structural information contained therein can be used to more effectively improve the inversion quality.
[0032] 2. Based on the characteristics of structural constraints, adaptive weight coefficients are set for structural constraint terms to balance data terms and structural constraint terms, thereby improving the reliability of constraints.
[0033] 3. This invention further optimizes the seismic wave velocity model in non-common areas. It uses the common area wave velocity model obtained by joint inversion as the initial model of the overall wave velocity model, and further optimizes the wave velocity model in non-common areas to improve the inversion effect.

[0053] (3-2) Adaptive weighting coefficients are set for the structural constraint terms to balance the data terms and structural constraint terms, resulting in the final structural constraint terms, which take the following form:
[0054]
[0055]
[0056] Where k is the number of iterations. Let k be the adaptive weighting factor. For the cross gradient term, This is the overall structural constraint term.
[0057] (3-3) The obtained structural constraint terms are alternately added to the loss functions of seismic and electrical methods to obtain the joint inversion results based on structural constraints.
