Seismic metamaterial to have no limitation regarding the radiated frequency. The cloak itself demonstrates no forward or back scattering, hence, the seismic cloak becomes an effective medium. In 2012, researchers held an experimental field-test in France, with the aim to highlight analogy with phononic crystal. Seismic metamaterial A seismic metamaterial, is a metamaterial that is designed to counteract the adverse effects of seismic waves on artificial structures, which exist on or near the surface of the earth. seismic metamaterials were still in the development stage. More than a million earthquakes are recorded each year, by a worldwide system of earthquake detection stations.
Seismic interferometry location. Seismic interferometry can virtually move a source into a downhole location to better illuminate and capture steeply dipping sediments on the flank of a salt dome. In this case, the SI result was very similar to that obtained using an actual downhole source. Seismic interferometry can locate the position of an unknown source and is often utilized in hydrofrac applications to map the extent of induced fractures. It is possible that interferometric techniques can be applied to timelapse seismic monitoring of subtle changes in reservoir properties in the subsurface. Seismic interferometry applications are currently limited by a number of
