Staggered-grid finite-difference forward modeling in the time domain has been widely used in reverse time migration and full waveform inversion because of its low memory cost and ease to implementation on GPU, however, high dominant frequency of wavelet and big grid interval could result in significant numerical dispersion. To suppress numerical dispersion, in this paper, we first derive a new weighted binomial window function (WBWF) for staggered-grid finite-difference, and two new parameters are included in this new window function. Then we analyze different characteristics of the main and side lobes of the amplitude response under different parameters and accuracy of the numerical solution between the WBWF method and some other optimum methods which denotes our new method can drive a better finite difference operator. Finally, we perform elastic wave numerical forward modeling which denotes that our method is more efficient than other optimum methods without extra computing costs.

Abstract. The forward modeling of a scalar wave equation plays an important role in the numerical geophysical computations. The finite-difference algorithm in the form of a second-order wave equation is one of the commonly used forward numerical algorithms. This algorithm is simple and is easy to implement based on the conventional grid. In order to ensure the accuracy of the calculation, absorption layers should be introduced around the computational area to suppress the wave reflection caused by the artificial boundary. For boundary absorption conditions, a perfectly matched layer is one of the most effective algorithms. However, the traditional perfectly matched layer algorithm is calculated using a staggered grid based on the first-order wave equation, which is difficult to directly integrate into a conventional-grid finite-difference algorithm based on the second-order wave equation. Although a perfectly matched layer algorithm based on the second-order equation can be derived, the formula is rather complex and intermediate variables need to be introduced, which makes it hard to implement. In this paper, we present a simple and efficient algorithm to match the variables at the boundaries between the computational area and the absorbing boundary area. This new boundary-matched method can integrate the traditional staggered-grid perfectly matched layer algorithm and the conventional-grid finite-difference algorithm without formula transformations, and it can ensure the accuracy of finite-difference forward modeling in the computational area. In order to verify the validity of our method, we used several models to carry out numerical simulation experiments. The comparison between the simulation results of our new boundary-matched algorithm and other boundary absorption algorithms shows that our proposed method suppresses the reflection of the artificial boundaries better and has a higher computational efficiency.

And Inversion

One of the major problems in the modeling and inversion of marine controlled-source electromagnetic (CSEM) data is related to the need for accurate representation of very complex geoelectrical models typical for marine environment. At the same time, the corresponding forward-modeling algorithms should be powerful and fast enough to be suitable for repeated use in hundreds of iterations of the inversion and for multiple transmitter/receiver positions. To this end, we have developed a novel 3D modeling and inversion approach, which combines the advantages of the finite-difference (FD) and integral-equation (IE) methods. In the framework of this approach, we have solved Maxwell’s equations for anomalous electric fields using the FD approximation on a staggered grid. Once the unknown electric fields in the computation domain of the FD method are computed, the electric and magnetic fields at the receivers are calculated using the IE method with the corresponding Green’s tensor for the background conductivity model. This approach makes it possible to compute the fields at the receivers accurately without the need of very fine FD discretization in the vicinity of the receivers and sources and without the need for numerical differentiation and interpolation. We have also developed an algorithm for 3D inversion based on the hybrid FD-IE method. In the case of the marine CSEM problem with multiple transmitters and receivers, the forward modeling and the Fréchet derivative calculations are very time consuming and require using large memory to store the intermediate results. To overcome those problems, we have applied the moving sensitivity domain approach to our inversion. A case study for the 3D inversion of towed streamer EM data collected by PGS over the Troll field in the North Sea demonstrated the effectiveness of the developed hybrid method.
