[0043] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the various embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, those skilled in the art will understand that many technical details are presented in the embodiments of the present invention to facilitate a better understanding of the invention. However, the technical solutions claimed in the present invention can be implemented even without these technical details and various variations and modifications based on the following embodiments. The division of the following embodiments is for ease of description and should not constitute any limitation on the specific implementation of the present invention. The various embodiments can be combined with and referenced by each other without contradiction.
[0044] As mentioned earlier, to address the technical problem of difficulty in obtaining near-surface elastic parameters using traditional explosive source acquisition, this invention proposes a method for inverting near-surface elastic parameters based on controllable source force signals. This method approximates the controllable source excitation device as an elastically damped system. The input scanning signal is converted into a force signal by the excitation device and interacts with the ground. Based on the characteristics of controllable source excitation and considering the coupling effect between the weight, vibrating plate, and the ground, a mathematical and physical model of the controllable source excitation device is established. The force signal transmission process is represented by a transfer function. By solving this transfer function, the near-surface elastic parameters at the source excitation location can be obtained through inversion.
[0045] The implementation details of the above method are described in detail below through examples. The following content is only for the convenience of understanding the implementation details and is not necessary for implementing this solution.
[0046] Example 1:
[0047] like Figure 1 As shown in the figure, this embodiment provides a method for inverting near-surface elastic parameters based on controllable source force signals. The method mainly includes the following steps:
[0048] Step 1: Based on the characteristics of the controllable source excitation device and taking into account the coupling effect between the weight, the vibrating plate and the ground, establish a model of the controllable source excitation device to provide a mathematical and physical model for obtaining near-surface elastic parameters.
[0049] Step 2: Based on the constructed controllable source excitation device model, the force transmission formula of the hammer-vibrating plate system is derived. The weighted sum of the ground force of the controllable source excitation system can be further obtained using the mass and acceleration signals of the hammer and vibrating plate.
[0050] Step 3: Taking into account the coupling between the vibrating plate and the ground, the weighted sum of ground forces is further transmitted downwards, and the force transmission formula of the ground coupling system is derived.
[0051] Step 4: Using the force transmission formulas from Step 2 and Step 3, the transfer function between the controllable source hammer-vibrating plate-ground system can be further derived.
[0052] Step 5: Invert the near-surface elastic parameters using the transfer function of the controllable seismic source excitation device.
[0053] Furthermore, based on the characteristics of the controllable source excitation device in step one, it can be approximated as an elastic damping system, which consists of two parts: a weighted hammer-vibrating plate system and a ground coupling system. The scanning signal input from the controllable source is converted into a weighted sum of ground forces by the weighted hammer-vibrating plate system, and then the weighted sum of ground forces is converted into force signals by the ground coupling system and transmitted underground.
[0054] In step two, based on the constructed controllable vibration source excitation device model, the force transmission formula of the weight-vibrating plate system can be derived, specifically expressed as follows:
[0055] -F g =M r A r +M b A b (1)
[0056] Among them, F g For weighted sum of ground forces, M r To control the mass of the seismic source hammer, A r M is the acceleration signal of the hammer. b To control the mass of the vibrating plate of the source, A b The signal is the vibration plate acceleration signal. The scanning signal is converted into a weighted sum of ground forces by the weighted hammer-vibration plate system and continues to propagate downwards.
[0057] In step three, the weighted sum of ground forces continues to propagate downwards to the ground-coupled system. Considering the coupling between the vibrating plate and the ground, the force transmission formula for the ground-coupled system is derived as follows:
[0058] F g =-(M g A b +D g V b +K g X b (2)
[0059] Among them, M g To capture the mass of the earth using a controlled seismic source, D g and K g These are the near-surface coupling stiffness and viscosity parameters, V. b and X b The velocity and displacement signals of the controllable source vibrating plate.
[0060] In step four, combining the force transmission formula (1) from step two and the force transmission formula (2) from step three, and transforming them to the Laplace domain, the transfer function between the controllable source hammer-vibrating plate-ground system can be further obtained, specifically expressed as follows:
[0061]
[0062] In step five, when the acceleration signals of the vibrating plate and the hammer are input, the near-surface elastic parameters D at the source excitation point can be obtained by inversion using the transfer function in equation (3). g and K g .
[0063] Example 2
[0064] The technical solution and beneficial effects of the present invention will be further illustrated below with a specific example. In this embodiment, the near-surface elastic parameter inversion method based on controllable source force signals involved in the present invention is verified through actual data testing. This method utilizes the acceleration signals of the hammer and vibrating plate obtained in actual controlled source acquisition, and uses the transfer function of the controlled source excitation device to invert the near-surface elastic parameters, ultimately obtaining the near-surface viscosity and stiffness parameters at the controlled source excitation device (see...). Figure 1 ).
[0065] This method fully considers the nonlinear vibrator, plate deflection, and coupling effects between the weight, plate, and ground in a controlled-source excitation system. It treats the controlled-source excitation system as an elastically damped system. By constructing a model of the controlled-source excitation device, the excitation process is converted into a force signal transmission process, which is then characterized using a transmission function. This provides a mathematical and physical model for the inversion of near-surface elastic parameters (see [link to relevant documentation]). Figure 2 ).
[0066] Figure 3 This involves the conversion of controlled source scanning signals into force signals from actual data. The scanning signal input to the seismic source excitation device is converted into a force signal that interacts with the ground through a weight-vibrating plate system and a ground coupling system. Figure 3 (a) is the scanning signal input during actual acquisition by the controllable seismic source. Figure 3 (b) is the force signal transmitted underground after passing through the controllable seismic source excitation device.
[0067] Figure 4 These are the acceleration signals of the hammer and vibrating plate recorded during the actual controllable seismic source excitation process, among which, Figure 4 (a) is the acceleration signal of a controllable seismic source hammer. Figure 4(b) is the acceleration signal of the controllable source plate. Using these two signals as inputs to the transfer function, the near-surface elastic parameters at the excitation point can be inverted. The inverted near-surface viscosity and stiffness are as follows: Figure 5 As shown. Among them, Figure 5 (a) represents the near-surface viscosity parameter at the excitation point. Figure 5 (b) represents the near-surface stiffness parameters at the excitation point of a controllable seismic source. Figure 5 As can be seen, both near-surface viscosity and stiffness exhibit a trend of gradually decreasing with increasing frequency.
[0068] The above method utilizes the acceleration signals of the hammer and vibrating plate obtained from actual controlled-source acquisition. Based on the characteristics of the controlled-source excitation device and considering the coupling factors between the vibrating plate and the ground, a mathematical model of the controlled-source excitation device is constructed, and the transfer function between the controlled-source hammer-vibrating plate-ground system is derived. The near-surface elastic parameters are inverted using the transfer function of the controlled-source excitation device, ultimately obtaining the near-surface viscosity and stiffness at the controlled-source excitation device. This method presents a novel method for inverting near-surface elastic parameters of controlled-source devices, directly obtaining near-surface elastic parameters from the controlled-source force signal at the excitation site without the need for additional construction measurements, greatly reducing the cost of field acquisition and observation, and is applicable to complex exploration areas with drastic near-surface surface changes.
