Development of Three-Dimensional, Full Wave Field Seismic Imaging Technology for Transportation Infrastructure Projects |
摘要: |
Three-dimensional (3-D) characterization of near-surface material properties is of paramount importance to transportation infrastructure projects. Conventional seismic methods are labor intensive which makes shallow 3-D imaging uneconomical. Automated 3-D seismic surveying technology, the "autojuggie," has been developed at the University of Kansas for efficient high-resolution ultra-shallow imaging of geologic materials. The proposed research will further develop the autojuggie for automated acquisition of 3-D seismic over paved surfaces and for three-component (3-C) recording. Three-component acquisition of the full seismic wavefield will allow for determination of material mechanical properties. Combined with high-resolution 3-D imaging of bedrock topography, fracture density and orientation, and void detection, it will facilitate transportation infrastructure projects. The new technology of automated 3-D&3-C seismic imaging will be tested at a Kansas transportation site. This project will be used to initiate research in transportation infrastructure, levee monitoring, and void and tunnel detection with state, federal and private organizations. |
