Integrated approach to cavity system seismic evaluation
Abstract
A methodology was developed to compare different design alternatives of a cavity system. The rock media was assumed to be isotropic both in the physical and statistical sense. Computations were performed for each design alternative, in a two-dimensional geometric framework using triangular and beam type finite elements.
