Resumen

Precise surveys are indispensable in coastal engineering projects. The extensive presence of sand in the coastal area leads to significant attenuation of seismic waves within unsaturated loose sediments. As a result, it becomes challenging for seismic waves to penetrate the weathered zone and reach the desired depth with significant amount of energy. In this study, the application of three-dimensional (3D) cross-well elastic reverse time migration (RTM) imaging based on multi-wave and multi-component techniques in coastal engineering exploration is explored. Accurate decomposition of vector compressional (P) and shear (S) waves is achieved through two wavefield decoupling algorithms without any amplitude and phase distortion. Additionally, compressional wave pressure components are obtained, which facilitates subsequent independent imaging. This study discusses and analyzes the imaging results of four imaging strategies under cross-correlation imaging conditions in RTM imaging. The analysis leads to the conclusion that scalarizing vector wavefields imaging yields superior imaging of P- and S-waves. Furthermore, the imaging results obtained through this approach are of great physical significance. In order to validate the efficacy of this method in 3D geological structure imaging in coastal areas, RTM imaging experiments were performed on two representative models. The results indicate that the proposed 3D elastic wave imaging method effectively generates accurate 3D cross-well imaging of P- and S-waves. This method utilizes the multi-wave and multi-component elastic wave RTM imaging technique to effectively leverage the Earth?s elastic medium without increasing costs. It provides valuable information about the distribution of subsurface rock layers, interfaces, and other structures in coastal engineering projects. Importantly, this can be achieved without resorting to extensive excavation or drilling operations. This method addresses the limitations of current cross-well imaging techniques, thereby providing abundant and accurate geological and geophysical information for the analysis and interpretation of 3D geological structures in coastal engineering projects. It has important theoretical and practical significance in real-world production, as well as for the study of geological structures in coastal engineering.
