Modelling shear-wave anisotropy in the Paris Basin

This thesis examines shear-wave propagation in the Paris Basin and demonstrates that the sedimentary rocks must have, at least, an orthorhombic anisotropic symmetry. It is suggested that the most likely cause of such an orthorhombic symmetry is the combination of fine-layering and crack anisotropy....
