impedanceTotal opposition of a circuit to the passage of alternating electric current. It includes the resistance R and the reactance X (caused by capacitance or inductance); the impedance can then be found using the equation Z2 = R2 + X2. How to thank TFD for its existence?

Ultrasound has selective interfacial
effects at the bone surface resulting from bone having a high absorption
coefficient, a high relative acoustic impedance, and an ability to
propagate shear waves. The evolution of QI
began with 'bright spots', and has advanced through many
stages including acoustic impedance inversion, AVO, neural networks, and
stochastic inversion. iMOSS is a technology solution designed to provide advanced
well-driven rock-physics and seismic modeling tools to aid in the
interpretation of seismic attributes such as acoustic impedance and AVO. |
