Abstract

Passive recordings of seismic noise are increasingly used in earthquake engineering to measure in situ the shear-wave velocity profile at a given site. Ambient vibrations, which are assumed to be mainly composed of surface waves, call be used to determine the Rayleigh-wave dispersion curve, with the advantage of not requiring artificial sources. Due to the data uncertainties and the non-linearity of the problem itself, the solution of the dispersion-curve inversion is generally non-unique. Stochastic search methods such as the neighbourhood algorithm allow searches for minima of the misfit function by investigating the whole parameter space. Due to the limited number of parameters in surface-wave inversion, they constitute an attractive alternative to linearized methods. An efficient tool using the neighbourhood algorithm was developed to invert the one-dimensional Vs profile from passive or active source experiments. As the number of generated models is usually high in stochastic techniques, special attention was paid to the optimization of the forward computations. Also, the possibility of inserting a priori information into the parametrization was introduced in the code. This new numerical tool was successfully tested on synthetic data, with and without a priori information. We also present all application to real-array data measured at a site in Brussels (Belgium), the geology of which consists of about 115 m of sand and clay layers overlying a Palaeozoic basement. On this site, active and passive source data proved to be complementary and the method allowed the retrieval of a Vs profile consistent with borehole data available at the same location.
