Research Interests: |
1. Hydro-seismology(Water and Earthquake) 2. Machine learning and prediction of disaster precursors 3. Rock-physics Mainly engaged in research on “Water and Earthquake” (hydro-seismology) and rock physics. Achievements include: (1) For the first time, exploratory research on seismic underground fluids (water level response to tidal and barometric loading) was combined with the study of the sealing property of the upper cover layer involved in CO2 geological storage, toxic wastewater storage in shale gas exploration and development; proposed an algorithm based on the combination of the M2 semi-diurnal tidal response component and the O1 diurnal tidal response component to explore the vertical leakage and fracture distribution of the upper cover layer; (2) Quantitatively obtained the scale range applicable to the pore-elastic theory (1.5 times the fracture length range); explored the physical mechanism of co-seismic strain changes in the far-field area caused by large earthquakes; (3) Using the finite difference algorithm, for the first time, numerical simulation from fluid-containing biphasic medium modeling to full waveform propagation was achieved; (4) Based on deep learning, conducted research on earthquake precursors and the exploration of the mechanism of earthguake preparation. So far, 37 professional articles have been published, including 16 first-author and 4 corresponding-author international SCI articles.
