Finite-difference approximation of wave equation: a study case of the SIMA velocity model

Synthetic seismograms enable to model the theoretical seismic response of the Earth interior due to different structural features and changes in the physical properties of crust and mantle. This approximation provides a best understanding of the real seismic data recorded in field experiments. In th...

Sumario:Synthetic seismograms enable to model the theoretical seismic response of the Earth interior due to different structural features and changes in the physical properties of crust and mantle. This approximation provides a best understanding of the real seismic data recorded in field experiments. In this paper, we are showing the development and application of a new scheme based on a multi-order explicit finite-difference algorithm for acoustic waves in a 2D heterogeneous media. The results of the modeling are compared with the seismic data acquired within the SIMA project providing new insight about the internal structure of the subsurface allowing improving the velocity model obtained in previous works.
