pylops.avo.avo.zoeppritz_element

pylops.avo.avo.zoeppritz_element(vp1, vs1, rho1, vp0, vs0, rho0, theta1, element='PdPu')

Single element of Zoeppritz solution.

Simple wrapper to pylops.avo.avo.scattering_matrix, returning any mode reflection coefficient from the Zoeppritz scattering matrix for specific combination of incident and reflected wave and a set of incident angles

Parameters:

vp1float

P-wave velocity of the upper medium

vs1float

S-wave velocity of the upper medium

rho1float

Density of the upper medium

vp0float

P-wave velocity of the lower medium

vs0float

S-wave velocity of the lower medium

rho0float

Density of the lower medium

theta1numpy.ndarray or float

Incident angles in degrees

elementstr, optional

Specific choice of incident and reflected wave combining any two of the following strings: Pd P-wave downgoing, Sd S-wave downgoing, Pu P-wave upgoing, Su S-wave upgoing (e.g., PdPu)

Returns:

reflnumpy.ndarray

reflectivity values for all input angles for specific combination of incident and reflected wave.
