Shear Wave Splitting Analysis

Shear Wave Splitting Analysis is a geophysical method that belongs to the class of seismic anisotropy analysis techniques, distinguished by its use of the polarization and time delay of split shear waves to infer the orientation and intensity of in-situ stress fields in fractured or anisotropic rock formations.
