Abstract

The inversion of the Rayleigh wave dispersion curve is a crucial step in the multi-channel analysis of surface waves (MASW) method, used to obtain the shear wave velocity (Vs) profile. The nonlinear and multimodal nature of the dispersion curve makes a global optimization approach, such as particle swarm optimization (PSO) and genetic algorithm (GA), the optimal choice for inversion. This study aims to compare the performance of multiple inversions of PSO (MI-PSO) and multiple inversions of GA (MI-GA) in solving the inversion problem of the Rayleigh wave dispersion curve. The test results indicate that the utilized MI-PSO outperforms MI-GA in terms of computational time and accuracy of the obtained model

Abstract

Shear wave velocity is an important parameter in geotechnical engineering for studying liquefaction, finding bedrock for the basement of a building, and figuring out the presence of subsurface cavities. This study aims to develop and evaluate the accuracy of the multiple inversions by the Particle Swarm Optimization (MI-PSO) algorithm with a weighted average solution. This algorithm is applied to Rayleigh wave dispersion data for geotechnical site characterization. Two synthetic models, the HVL model and the complex model (i.e., a combination of models with LVL and HVL characteristics), are used to conduct algorithm tests. These synthetic models replicate subsurface characteristics that are frequently encountered in geotechnical cases. Synthetic data tests show that the MI-PSO algorithm with a weighted average solution works excellently. The MI-PSO technique with a weighted average solution resolves the model better than the conventional average solution. When applied to two field data sets, the MI-PSO algorithm with a weighted average solution can delineate target models that are consistent with the qualitative interpretation based on the observed dispersion curve characteristics.
