As part of the effort to renew commercial supersonic flight, a predictive numerical tool to compute sonic boom transmission into buildings is under development. Due to the computational limitations of typical numerical methods used at low frequencies (e.g. Finite Element Method), it is necessary to develop a separate approach for the calculation of acoustic transmission and interior radiation at high frequencies. The high frequency approach can then later be combined with a low frequency method to obtain full frequency vibro-acoustic responses of buildings. An analytical method used for the computation of high frequency acoustic transmission through typical building partitions is presented in this paper. Each partition is taken in isolation and assumed to be infinite in dimension. Using the fact that a sonic boom generated far from the structure will approximate plane wave incidence, efficient analytical solutions for the vibration and acoustic radiation of different types of partitions are developed. This is linked to a commercial ray tracing code to compute the high frequency interior acoustic response and for auralization of transmitted sonic booms. Acoustic and vibration results of this high frequency tool are compared to experimental data for a few example cases demonstrating its efficiency and accuracy.

Although Serbin field in Southeast Texas was discovered in 1987, lithologic and petrophysical properties in the southeastern part of the field have not been fully evaluated. We have generated instantaneous frequency from 3D seismic data and predicted gamma-ray response volume from seismic attributes. By extracting maps of the instantaneous frequency and gamma-ray response along interpreted horizons, and crossplotting the instantaneous frequency against gamma-ray logs and integrating core data, we generated lithology maps to identify shale-prone zones that stratigraphically trapped hydrocarbons in the southeastern part of the field. We determine that Serbin field is separated into two areas: (1) a high-frequency, high-gamma-ray, and high-acoustic-impedance area in the northwest and (2) a low-frequency, low-gamma-ray, and low-acoustic-impedance area located in the southeast. By developing a lithologic map and relating it to the corresponding instantaneous-frequency map and log data, we also find that the southeastern part of the field can be divided into three zones: (1) zone 1, composed of approximately 0.7–2.7 m (approximately 2–8 ft) thick sandstone-rich beds of moderate frequency (25–30 Hz); (2) zone 2, composed of high-frequency (33–60 Hz) shale-rich zones that serve as stratigraphic-trapping-mechanisms; and (3) zone 3, composed of approximately 1.7–4 m (approximately 5–13 ft) thick sandstone-rich beds of low frequency (0–18 Hz) and relatively high porosity. These methods can be applied in other areas of the field with limited well control.

The seismic-impedance inversion problem is underconstrained inherently and does not allow the use of rigorous joint inversion. In the absence of a true inverse, a reliable solution free from subjective parameters can be obtained by defining a set of physical constraints that should be satisfied by the resulting images. A method for constructing synthetic logs is proposed that explicitly and accurately satisfies (1) the convolutional equation, (2) time-depth constraints of the seismic data, (3) a background low-frequency model from logs or seismic/geologic interpretation, and (4) spectral amplitudes and geostatistical information from spatially interpolated well logs. The resulting synthetic log sections or volumes are interpretable in standard ways. Unlike broadly used joint-inversion algorithms, the method contains no subjectively selected user parameters, utilizes the log data more completely, and assesses intermediate results. The procedure is simple and tolerant to noise, and it leads to higher-resolution images. Separating the seismic and subseismic frequency bands also simplifies data processing for acoustic-impedance (AI) inversion. For example, zero-phase deconvolution and true-amplitude processing of seismic data are not required and are included automatically in this method. The approach is applicable to 2D and 3D data sets and to multiple pre- and poststack seismic attributes. It has been tested on inversions for AI and true-amplitude reflectivity using 2D synthetic and real-data examples.
