Inversion versus migration

In the section of this chapter describing the Kirchhoff inversion method and general non-linear inversion techniques, we have demonstrated that the calculation of the Kirchhoff adjoint operator (15.142) and the adjoint Frechet derivative operator 

In conclusion, I should note that modern seismic migration algorithms are based mostly on finite-difference methods of the solution of back propagation problems. However, a description of these methods lies beyond the scope of this book.

The interfacial tension is a key property for describing the formation of emulsions and microemulsions (Aveyard et al., 1990), including those in supercritical fluids (da Rocha et al., 1999), as shown in Figure 8.3, where the v-axis represents a variety of formulation variables. A minimum in y is observed at the phase inversion point where the system is balanced with respect to the partitioning of the surfactant between the phases. Here, a middle-phase emulsion is present in equilibrium with excess C02-rich (top) and aqueous-rich (bottom) phases. Upon changing any of the formulation variables away from this point—for example, the hydrophilie/C02-philic balance (HCB) in the surfactant structure—the surfactant will migrate toward one of the phases. This phase usually becomes the external phase, according to the Bancroft rule. For example, a surfactant with a low HCB, such as PFPE COO NH4+ (2500 g/mol), favors the upper C02 phase and forms w/c microemulsions with an excess water phase. Likewise, a shift in formulation variable to the left would drive the surfactant toward water to form a c/w emulsion. Studies of y versus HCB for block copolymers of propylene oxide, and ethylene oxide, and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and ethylene oxide, have been used to understand microemulsion and emulsion formation, curvature, and stability (da Rocha et al., 1999).

When M, equals MpjN in Eq. (11.8), the grain boundary mobility is the same as the pore mobility (equal mobility). The equal mobility condition on a grain size versus pore size plane can be calculated for any mechanism of pore migration. As an example, consider the pore migration controlled by surface diffusion. In this case the pore mobility Mp = D,, )l Ttr kT) and the boundary mobility M = Z) / r for boundaries without impurity segregation. If N is inversely proportional to the boundary area per grain and is expressed as the number of pores per atom at the boundary, ...
