2009年4月21日,应声学所王秀明研究员的邀请,世界500强企业斯伦贝谢油田技术服务公司的S.K Steve Chang 博士为大家作了两个精彩的学术报告。
本次学术报告由林伟军副研究员主持,报告不仅吸引了所里感兴趣的众多师生,中科院地质与地球物理所和北京大学的10多位师生也慕名而来。
第一个报告的题目是“Wave Propagation through Finely Layered Media: a Quasi-Static Solution”。Steve Chang 博士首先指出地球上几乎所有的固体介质都是各向异性的,因此为了分析弹性波在地层中的传播,经常将岩层看作多个层状介质在深度方向上的叠加。但随着层状介质数目的增多,弹性波在众多介质分界面上的反射和透射越来越复杂,这大大的增加了分析的难度。为此,人们提出了等效求解的方法。报告中,他着重对比了"equivalent medium theory"及" quasi-static solution"这两种求解方法的特点,并指出后者较前者在求解精度等方面具有一定的优越性。之后,他具体介绍了应用" quasi-static solution"求解弹性波在介质中传播问题的步骤,并展示了一些求解结果。
在第二个题为“An Introduction to S-Transform for Time-Frequency Analysis”的报告中,他指出S 变换是连接短时傅里叶变换和小波变换之间的桥梁。它既具有这两种信号处理方法的相似之处,也具有其独特之处。比如,与短时傅里叶变换相同,S 变换同样应用一个移动的时间窗对信号进行分析,但这个时窗的长度可以随频率的大小变化,在这个方面与小波变换相同,但S 变换同时保留了傅里叶变换的绝对相位等数据且其窗函数的选择比较自由。鉴于这些特点,S变换在信号的时频分析中具有很多优点,目前在多个领域得到了广泛的应用。在Steve Chang 博士的报告中,他用多个应用实例向大家展示了S 变换在地球物理、海洋和大气物理及机械工程等方面的信号处理中的应用及效果。
由于本次报告针对油气储层探测与评价的研究热点,具有鲜明的专业特点。在近3个小时报告中,与会的众多人员不时就储层地震波场模拟近似、岩石低频声学参数测量、小波变换和S-变换的快速算法实现等问题,进行了交流与讨论。这是一次交流充分、讨论激烈的报告会,虽然时间较长,但取得了圆满的成功,这次报告会为大家了解国外储层评价科学研究和技术进展,具有重要意义。
