read_mineos(file) -> m::LinearLayeredModel

Read a 1D seismic model from a Mineos tabular format file.

write_mineos(file, m::LinearLayeredModel, freq=1.0, title="Model from SeisModels.jl")
write_mineos(io::IO, m, args...)

Save a SeisModel1D as a Mineos 'tabular' format file to file on disk or to an io. Optionally supply the reference frequency freq in Hz (which defaults to 1 Hz) and a title.

Note that Mineos has two types of model file; one parameterised by radial knots with values interpolated linearly between them ('tabular' format), and one with PREM-style polynomials ('polynomial' format). Mineos uses the tabular format internally even if a polynomial file is read in, and testing suggests that polynomial files are not used correctly by the CIG version of Mineos, so it is not recommended to use them at all. Consequently, SeisModels does not support writing polynomial format files.

read_tvel(file) -> model::LinearLayeredModel
read_tvel(io::IO) -> model::LinearLayeredModel

Read a model from a file in the ttimes 'tvel' format. This format specifies a LinearLayeredModel with only isotropic Vp, Vs and density.

The two header lines are ignored but must be present.

write_tvel(file, model::LinearLayeredModel; comment1="SeisModels.jl - P", comment2="SeisModels.jl - S")
write_tvel(io::IO, model; kwargs...)

Write a model to file or an arbitrary IO object in the ttimes 'tvel' format.

Optionally supply the two comment lines, comment1 and comment2 which form the header of the file.

LinearLayeredModel(m::PREMPolyModel, spacing=20)

Convert the model m into a LinearLayeredModel, with radial knots spaced a maximum of spacing km apart.

LinearLayeredModel(m::SteppedLayeredModel)

Convert the model m into a LinearLayeredModel, with radial knots spaced at the bottom and top of each layer in m.

PREMPolyModel(m::LinearLayeredModel, order=1; fref=1.0)

Convert the model m into a PREMPolyModel, with maximum polynomial order. The reference frequency fref in Hz can be given.

PREMPolyModel(m::SteppedLayeredModel, order=0; fref=1.0)

Convert the model m into a PREMPolyModel, with maximum polynomial order. The reference frequency fref in Hz can be given.

SteppedLayeredModel(m::Union{LinearLayeredModel, PREMPolyModel}, spacing=10)

Convert the model m into a SteppedLayeredModel, with layer tops spaced a maximum of spacing km apart. Where layer tops of m lie between the regular set of spacing layer tops, extra layers are inserted. Thus layer tops in the new model always coincide with discontinuities in m.

Layers take the value of the properties at the midpoint of the spacing km interval in the original PREMPolyModel.

LinearLayeredModel(; kwargs...) -> m

Construct a LinearLayeredModel by specifying keyword arguments. The length of arrays defines the number of layers and the presence of arguments determines whether the model has density, anisotropy and attenuation.

Note that radii are given in km, velocities in km/s, densities in g/cm³ and frequency in Hz.

Keyword arguments

Radii

• r: The radius of a set of nodes ranging from the centre of the planet to the surface, in km. When the same value of r is repeated twice, a discontinuity is introduced at that radius. The first value of r must be 0 km. This is the only mandatory argument.

Isotropic properties

These must be given each as a Vector of values at each radial node. Each parameter (vp, density, Qμ, etc.) must have the correct number of layers.

• vp: P-wave velocity
• vs: S-wave velocity

Anisotropic parameters

If the model is anisotropic and the radial anisotropy parameters are all provided, then the Voigt average velocities are constructed automatically unless vp and/or vs are also given separately.

• vsv: Vertical S-wave velocity
• vsh: Horizontally-polarised S-wave velocity
• eta: The ratio C₁₃/(Vph - 2Vsv), where cᵢⱼ is the Voigt elasticity matrix, the 1-direction is horizontal and the 3-direction is radial

Attenuation parameters

ASCII versions (Qmu, Qkappa) of these exist for ease of use as well as the Unicode versions (Qμ, Qκ). If both are supplied, an error is thrown.

• Qμ or Qmu: Shear modulus quality factor
• Qκ or Qkappa: Bulk modulus quality factor
