Reliability of the slowness and slowness-polarization methods for anisotropy estimation in VTI media from 3C walkaway VSP data

Reliability of the slowness and slowness-polarization methods for anisotropy estimation in VTI media from 3C walkaway VSP data

We studied the validity of qP-wave slowness and slowness-polarization methods for estimating local anisotropy parameters in transversely isotropic (TI) media by quantifying the estimation errors in a numerical exercise. We generated numerical slownesses and polarizations over two aperture ranges cor...
