Acoustic impedance inversion for geotechnical evaluation in underground coal mining

In underground coal mining, knowledge of the geomechanical properties of the strata surrounding the mining horizons is essential for the prevention of unexpected rock failures that can disrupt production and jeopardize mine safety. Model based acoustic impedance inversion integrates drill hole and s...
