The invention relates to the technical field of
earthquake prediction, in particular to a
crustal stress azimuth earthquake prediction method based on a
transverse wave speed change rate, which comprises the following steps: calculating a speed value of a
transverse wave and a propagation distance, extracting a difference value to generate a change rate set, calculating an offset rate, screening a continuous overrun section, identifying a disturbance path section, and performing interpolation restoration to generate a purification sequence. Extracting forward and reverse propagation trends and counting direction identifiers, and generating a
crustal stress main stress direction map; according to the method, a change rate set is generated through a sliding window segmentation speed sequence,
data continuity is enhanced, local features are reserved, a sudden change area is screened and accurately positioned in combination with a continuous offset rate, multi-path
lithology difference identification and disturbance repair are carried out, non-structural interference is eliminated, and forward and reverse path
cross validation is carried out to screen a direction consistent section, so that the discrimination robustness is improved; the velocity direction is dynamically associated with the structure trend, synchronous analysis of the
stress field and fault activity is realized, multi-stage
processing is combined with dynamic threshold and direction
verification, and the derivation precision and timeliness are improved.
