Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a reverse time migration tunnel advanced detection method and system for visco-acoustic media with high-order staggered grids, belonging to the field of geophysical prospecting for tunnel engineering. Background Art
[0002] As an important part of the construction of modern transportation, water conservancy, mines and other infrastructure, the construction safety and efficiency of tunnels are directly related to the overall quality and progress of the project. However, during the tunnel construction process, complex geological conditions are often encountered, such as faults, fracture zones, karst caves, groundwater and other unfavorable geological bodies. These geological anomalies may cause disasters such as collapses and water inrushes, seriously threatening construction safety. Therefore, accurately detecting the geological conditions ahead and predicting potential risks before tunnel excavation has become an indispensable key link in tunnel engineering. With the development of geophysical exploration technologies, seismic wave detection methods have gradually become one of the mainstream technologies for tunnel advanced detection due to their advantages such as large detection depth, high resolution, and wide application range. The seismic wave detection method artificially generates seismic waves and uses the law of seismic wave propagation in underground media to image geological structures. However, in practical applications, seismic waves will be affected by the absorption and attenuation of the medium during propagation, resulting in a decrease in wave field energy and phase distortion. This phenomenon is particularly significant in visco-acoustic media (such as aquifers and soft rock formations). This attenuation effect will reduce the resolution and accuracy of seismic wave imaging, and thus affect the ability to identify geological anomaly bodies.
[0003] Reverse Time Migration (RTM) is a high-precision seismic imaging algorithm. It can achieve high-resolution imaging of complex geological structures through the matching of two-way wave field propagation and imaging conditions. Combining the high-order staggered grid finite difference method with reverse time migration can significantly improve the accuracy and reliability of seismic wave imaging in visco-acoustic media. It provides a scientific basis and safety guarantee for tunnel construction and has important engineering application value. Summary of the Invention

The SLS model usually refers to the Standard Linear Solid Model, also known as the Zener model. It is a classic viscoelastic material model consisting of the following two parts: the spring represents the elastic properties of the material and follows Hooke's law.

[0089] Example 1: As Figures 1 - 8As shown, a high-order staggered grid viscoacoustic medium reverse time migration tunnel advance detection method, the specific steps of the method are as follows:
[0090] Step 1: Construct a velocity model and set the spatial and temporal sampling intervals, then discretize the velocity model to prepare for subsequent numerical simulations;
[0091] like Figure 5 As shown, a groove velocity model is constructed, the upper and lower layers are set at different speeds, the sampling interval is 10 meters, and the time step is 1ms;
[0092] Step 2: Based on the SLS model (Standard Linear Solid), a viscoacoustic wave equation is established to characterize the propagation characteristics of seismic waves in attenuating media; the SLS theory is combined with the pure qP wave dispersion relation to derive the pure viscous acoustic wave TTI wave equation represented by memory variables;
[0093] In underground media, viscoelastic properties are often distributed in a linear relationship. Linear viscoelasticity represents the phenomenon that stress and strain are always interdependent during the entire deformation process. This stress-strain relationship can be established by a function that changes with time. The attenuation characteristics of underground media can be described by standard linear solids (SLS). The viscoelastic equation based on the attenuation mathematical model can be used for the propagation of seismic waves in attenuating anisotropic media, but its amplitude loss and phase dispersion are coupled, which is not conducive to the realization of RTM. Therefore, by combining SLS with the pure qP wave dispersion relationship, a pure viscous TTI wave equation represented by a memory variable is derived, which has a decoupling function and higher computational efficiency.
[0094] Based on the constitutive relation of the SLS model, the viscoacoustic wave equation is derived by considering the motion equation and constitutive relation of the medium, and then combined with the pure qP wave dispersion relation. Then, the memory variable is introduced to simplify the solution of the acoustic wave equation, and finally the pure viscous acoustic wave TTI wave equation represented by the memory variable is obtained.
[0095] Step 2 specifically includes:
[0096] Step 2.1. Based on the SLS model, establish the viscoacoustic wave equation to characterize the propagation characteristics of seismic waves in the attenuation medium;
[0097] SLS solid model usually refers to Standard Linear Solid Model, also known as Zener model. It is a classic viscoelastic material model, consisting of the following two parts: the spring represents the elastic properties of the material and follows Hooke's law. The spring-damper series represents the viscous properties of the material, which is used to describe the characteristics of the material that exhibits both elastic and viscous behavior when subjected to force;
[0098] The characteristics of seismic waves in an attenuating medium can be characterized by using a single SLS element in combination with the viscoacoustic wave equation; for the SLS model, its constitutive equation is:
[0099]
[0100] where p1, q0, and q1 are coefficients obtained through the forward and inverse Laplace transforms, σ represents stress, which is the force per unit area inside the material, represents the rate of change of stress with respect to time, i.e., the derivative of stress ε represents strain, which is the deformation of the material under the action of force, represents the rate of change of strain with respect to time, i.e., the derivative of strain
[0101] The equation in the viscoacoustic frequency-wavenumber domain is obtained through the SLS constitutive relation:
[0102]
[0103]
[0104] where p is the pressure wave field, r is the memory variable, P and are the spatial Fourier transforms of p and r respectively, k x , k y , k z are the wave fields in the x, y, and z directions, and are the stress relaxation time and strain relaxation time respectively, where Q is the quality factor, ω represents the angular frequency, ω0 is the reference angular frequency, and in the Fourier transform, the time derivative corresponds to iω in the frequency domain, and iω represents the derivative with respect to time.
[0105] Step 2.2: According to the viscoacoustic wave equation established in Step 2.1, by combining it with the dispersion relation of the pure qP wave, the pure viscous acoustic wave TTI wave equation expressed by the memory variable is derived.
[0106] Due to the anisotropy of the underground medium, the propagation speeds of seismic waves in different directions (P waves and S waves) are different. When the S wave passes through the anisotropic medium, shear wave splitting occurs, and the dispersion relation of seismic waves becomes more complex. The behavior of seismic waves in the anisotropic medium is characterized by the dispersion relations of P waves and SV waves; the expressions for the exact dispersion relations of P waves and SV waves are:
[0107]
[0108] where Equations (4) and (5) represent the dispersion relations of P waves and SV waves respectively, v p0and v s0 represent the P-wave and SV-wave velocities respectively, ω p and ω sv represent the angular frequencies of the P-wave and SV-wave respectively. E is an intermediate variable that describes the dispersion relationship between the P-wave and SV-wave. δ and ε are Thomsen anisotropy parameters. By setting the phase velocity v of the SV-wave sv to zero at all phase angles, a pure qP-wave dispersion formula containing only three parameters is obtained:
[0109]
[0110] In equations (2) and (3), is applicable to isotropic media. When sound waves pass through anisotropic media underground, dispersion occurs. (1 + 2ε reflects the anisotropic characteristics of the medium in the x and y directions. S k is a term related to viscosity, describing the energy loss of waves during propagation in viscous media. By replacing with (1 + 2ε the anisotropic effect is introduced. By introducing the term the viscous effect is introduced. When ε = 0 and S k = 0,
[0111] In equations (2) and (3), is replaced with Thus, the anisotropic effect and viscous effect are introduced into the dispersion relationship of the pure qP-wave, and a pure viscous acoustic wave equation is obtained in the frequency-wavenumber domain:
[0112]
[0113] By transforming equations (9) and (10) into the time-space domain, the pure viscous acoustic wave VTI wave equation is obtained:
[0114]
[0115] In the formula, represents the variable of the pressure field p changing with time, represent the second-order partial derivatives of the pressure with respect to the spatial coordinates x, y, and z respectively. S is used to describe the propagation characteristics of waves in the medium and is related to anisotropy and viscosity, represents the variable of the memory variable evolving with time. δ is one of the Thomsen anisotropy parameters and is used to describe the anisotropic characteristics of transversely isotropic (VTI) media.
[0116] Among them, equations (11) and (12) can be solved using the finite difference method. Equation (13) is the spatial domain representation of equation (8) and can only be solved by a spectral-based method. To solve equation (13) using the finite difference method subsequently, the equivalent form of equation (8) is:
[0117]
[0118] where n = (n x , n y , n z ) = k / |k| = (k x , k y , k z ) / |k| represents the propagation direction of seismic waves, and n x , n y , n z correspond to in the spatial domain respectively. The expression formula of formula (14) in the spatial domain is:
[0119]
[0120] where S n represents the propagation characteristics of waves in the spatial domain; substituting S in equations (11) and (12) with S n , a new time - space domain pure viscous acoustic VTI wave equation is obtained:
[0121]
[0122] Through the above transformation, equations (16) and (17) can be solved using the finite difference method. By rotating the grid to align the grid with the symmetry axis of the medium, the transformed equation is:
[0123]
[0124] where θ and represent the tilt angle and azimuth angle respectively. and are the new wave numbers in the rotated coordinate system. According to equation (18), the two - dimensional pure viscous acoustic TTI wave equation can be expressed as:
[0125]
[0126] In the formula, is the approximate form of the anisotropic viscous term, which describes the propagation characteristics of waves in the tilted coordinate system, T x , T z is the first - order differential operator, and T xx is the second - order differential operator, which is used to describe the propagation characteristics of waves in the tilted coordinate system.
[0127] Step 2.3. Based on the two-dimensional pure-viscous acoustic TTI wave equation containing the coupled amplitude attenuation and phase dispersion operators derived in Step 2.2, decouple it to derive a pure-viscous acoustic TTI wave equation containing the decoupled amplitude attenuation and phase dispersion operators. The steps are as follows:
[0128] Pure-viscous acoustic TTI wavefield propagation operator W vis Can generally be expressed as:
[0129] W vis = W ac + W phase + W amp (23)
[0130] Where W ac is the pure acoustic TTI wavefield propagation operator, W phase is the phase dispersion control operator, and W amp is the amplitude attenuation control operator. The phase dispersion-dominated pure-viscous acoustic TTI wavefield propagation operator W vpd is:
[0131] W vpd = W ac + W phase (24)
[0132] The amplitude attenuation-dominated pure-viscous acoustic TTI wavefield propagation operator W vamp is expressed as:
[0133] W vamp = W ac + W amp (25)
[0134] Subtracting the phase dispersion control operator W vis from the pure-viscous acoustic TTI propagation operator W phase , the amplitude attenuation-dominated pure-viscous acoustic TTI wavefield propagation operator W vamp can be indirectly obtained:
[0135] W vamp = W vis - W phase (26)
[0136] Based on the above analysis, by deriving the phase dispersion-dominated and amplitude attenuation-dominated pure-viscous acoustic TTI wavefield propagation operators, a standard linear solid (SLS) model can be used to further derive a pure-viscous acoustic TTI wave equation containing the decoupled amplitude attenuation and phase dispersion terms.
[0137] First, calculate the memory variable related to the relaxation time
[0138]
[0139] Substituting Equation (27) into Equation (9), a new pure-viscous acoustic wave equation in the frequency-wavenumber domain is obtained:
[0140]
[0141] where can be rewritten as and and correspond to the phase dispersion factor W phase and the amplitude attenuation factor W vamp respectively, where A is a parameter used to describe the phase dispersion and amplitude attenuation of the medium, Q is the quality factor, Converting Equation (28) to the time-space domain, the pure-viscous acoustic wave TTI wave equation in the time-space domain can be obtained:
[0142]
[0143] The pure-viscous acoustic wave TTI wave equation dominated by phase dispersion is expressed as:
[0144]
[0145] The pure-viscous acoustic wave TTI wave equation dominated by amplitude attenuation is expressed as:
[0146]
[0147] Based on Equations (30) and (31), a pure-viscous acoustic wave TTI wave equation with decoupled amplitude attenuation and phase dispersion based on the SLS model is finally obtained:
[0148]
[0149] where k1 and k2 are the coefficients for controlling the phase dispersion term and the amplitude loss term respectively. When k1 = 0 and k2 = 1, the equation is the pure-viscous acoustic wave TTI wave equation dominated by phase dispersion. When k1 = 1 and k2 = 0, the equation is the pure-viscous acoustic wave TTI wave equation dominated by amplitude loss. When k1 = 1 and k2 = 1, the equation contains both the phase dispersion and amplitude loss terms, and can comprehensively describe the propagation characteristics of viscous acoustic waves in TTI media.
[0150] Step3: Use the derived wave equation to simulate the propagation of seismic waves inside the velocity model. In this way, the wave field data at each grid point at each moment are obtained; through the wave field absorption boundary equation and the wave field absorption coefficient, the wave field values of the grid points on the boundary of the velocity model at each moment are calculated, so as to obtain the boundary wave field data;
