3D two-layer VTI/orthorhombic model

Figure 7 shows synthetic vector displacement fields using the proposed approach for a 3-D two-layer model, with a horizontal reflector at 1.167 km. The first layer is a VTI medium with $ v_{p0}=2500 m/s$ , $ v_{s0}=1400 m/s$ , $ \epsilon=0.25$ , $ \delta=0.05$ , and $ \gamma=0.15$ , and the second is an orthorhombic medium representing a vertically fratcured TI formation (Tsvankin, 2001; Schoenberg and Helbig, 1997), which has the parameters $ v_{p0}=3000 m/s$ , $ v_{s0}=1600 m/s$ , $ \epsilon_1=0.30$ , $ \epsilon_2=0.15$ , $ \delta_1=0.08$ , $ \delta_2=-0.05$ , $ \delta_3=-0.10$ , $ \gamma_1=0.20$ and $ \gamma_2=0.05$ . A exploration source is located at the center of the model. We achieve efficient simulation of dispersion-free 3D elastic wave propagation for the decoupled and total displacement fields. Shear wave splitting can be observed in the qS-wave fields.
