Methodological advances in seismic noise imaging of the Alpine area by Paul, Anne, Pedersen, Helle A., Bodin, Thomas, Kästle, Emanuel, Soergel, Dorian, Alder, Chloé, Lu, Yang, Nouibat, Ahmed

“…The three-dimensional S-wave velocity models have been further improved by wave-equation based inversions accounting for the physics of seismic wave propagation, including elastic–acoustic coupling at the sea bottom. A beamforming approach has been developed to avoid systematic errors in the measurement of azimuthal anisotropy from seismic noise. …”

Estimating the safe mud weight window for drilling operations through pre-stack seismic inversion, a case study in one of the Southwestern Iran oil fields by Mohammad Sadegh Mahmoudian, Yousef Shiri, Ahmad Vaezian

“…Seismic inversion analysis revealed that the studied sandstone reservoir layer, known as the Ghar formation, possesses lower P-wave or S-wave acoustic impedance (P-/S-AI) and density compared to adjacent layers, likely due to the presence of porosity and potentially intra-formational fluids. …”

Deep Learning-Based Speech Emotion Recognition Using Multi-Level Fusion of Concurrent Features by Samuel, Kakuba, Alwin, Poulose, Dong, Seog Han, Senior Member, Ieee

“…The proposed CoSTGA model uses a combination of dilated causal convolutions (DCC), bidirectional long short-term memory (BiLSTM), transformer encoders (TE), multi-head and self-attention mechanisms. Acoustic and lexical features were extracted from the interactive emotional dyadic motion capture (IEMOCAP) dataset. …”

Evaluation method and application for in-situ stress in No. 8+9 coal seam, southern Shenfu block, northeastern margin of Ordos Basin by Jiawei WU, Wei TANG, Yanhe ZHU, Cunwu WANG, Yongjing TIAN, Jingyu ZI, Jianghao YANG, Xian SHI

“…This study focused on the direction and magnitude of the current in-situ stress in the No. 8+9 coal seam in the southern Shenfu block, northeastern margin of the Ordos Basin. Array acoustic logging, microseismic monitoring, and imaging logging were used to evaluate the direction of the present maximum horizontal principal stress in the coal seam and its roof and floor. …”
