Types of waves

Exciting elastic waves close to the surface of the land or the sea and receiving waves that went into the ground and are coming back to the surface, in most cases on the basis of the observed waves allows reconstructing the object “image” i.e. develop its model. The most amazing is that such reconstruction is predominantly performed by means of identifying times of the waves travel from the source to the boundaries of the profile and back to the receiver, in other words, based on the rule linking this travel time with the distance from the source to the receiver, known in advance speed properties of the medium, and thickness of sediments under exploration.

Resolving the most complex objectives facing the modem exploration seismology became possible only due to the huge arsenal of theoretical knowledge and methodological techniques. Nowadays exploration seismology uses practically all phenomena related to exciting and propagation of elastic waves in complex mediums: reflection, refraction, diffraction, converting waves, dissipation, generation of head (refracted) waves, effects generated by propagation of waves in anisotropic mediums, phenomena in multi-component mediums.

Concerning the types of waves, P-waves are predominantly used currently, though some successful attempts are being taken to utilize both S-waves and converted waves.
