摘要
在实验室内利用超声尾波观测大尺度(1.5 m)岩石断层的黏滑过程.利用基于尾波干涉的观测方法,我们获得了高达10^(-6)的相对波速变化的观测精度,这相当于~10 kPa的应力变化.利用高精度的测量,我们获取两种不同加载速率下(1μm·s^(-1),10μm·s^(-1))黏滑过程三个阶段(恢复、加载和滑动)基于波速变化的特征量.我们更进一步获取了断层失稳阶段波速变化的时空演化过程.最后讨论了该观测方法需要改进的地方.以上研究结果表明作为一种对现有实验观测手段的有益补充,利用超声尾波观测实验室大尺度岩石断层的动力学过程是可行的.
This paper describes the use of an ultrasonic coda waves for observation the stick-slips on a large-scale 1.5-meter granite fault. By using coda wave interferometry, a resolution of 10^-6 in relative velocity change is obtained which corresponds to a sensitivity stress change of ~10 kPa. Due to such high sensitivity, we characterize the 3 phases (recovery, loading and slipping) of stick-slip by means of time-dependent velocity change at two different loading rate (1 μm·s^-1,10 μm·s^-1). Furthermore, we analysis the spatial-temporal changes along the fault during the slip-instability stage. The performance of the method is discussed. The study demonstrated that as a complementary method, the ultrasonic coda waves is a practical tool to study the geodynamics of large-scale laboratory fault.
