tmatrix 1.2.2

Seismic properties and pore structure of carbonate rocks

tmatrix

Installation

For most users, installing from PyPI is the preferred way:

pip install tmatrix

Or using uv:

uv add tmatrix

For developers, the project can be compiled with cmake:

cd tmatrix
mkdir build && cd build
cmake ..
make

All objects are placed in the build subdirectory.

Note that enabling parallel processing incurs some overhead, and should only be enabled for large jobs (e.g. 10.000+ sequential calls).

Under Windows use, find your desired Windows CMake generator, ie:

cd tmatrix
mkdir build
cd build
cmake .. -G "Visual Studio 14 2015 Win64"
cmake --build . --target ALL_BUILD --config Release

Usage

The package exposes two functions

• tmatrix_porosity
• tmatrix_porosity_noscenario

TMatrix porosity

from tmatrix import tmatrix_porosity


# Dimension of the output array
dim = 21

# Output result is stored in `out_np`
out_np = np.zeros((dim, 4))

# Mineral properties. Contains mineral bulk modulus [Pa], shear modulus [Pa] and density [kg/m³]. Shape should be (N, 3).
mineral_property_np = np.tile(np.array([7.10e10, 3.20e10, 2.71e03]), (dim, 1))

# Mineral properties. Contains mineral bulk modulus [Pa], shear modulus [Pa] and density [kg/m³]. Shape should be (N, 3).  
fluid_property_np = np.tile(np.array([2.700e09, 1.005e03, 1.000e02, 1.000e02]), (dim, 1))

# Porosity values. Shape should be (N,).
phi_vector_np = np.linspace(0.15, 0.25, dim)

# Input scenario. Can be 1,2,3 or 4.
#   1: Dual porosity, mostly rounded pores
#   2: Dual porosity, little rounded pores
#   3: Mixed pores
#   4: Flat pores and cracks
in_scenario = 1

# Signal frequency [Hz]
frequency = 1000

# Angle of symmetry plane (0 = HTI, 90 = VTI medium) [deg]
angle_of_sym_plane = 90

# Fraction of inclusions that are connected
per_inc_con = 0.5

# Fraction of inclusions that are anisotropic
per_inc_any = 0.5

# Returns 0 if success, otherwise failure. Result will be stored in `out_np`, with shape (dim, 4). 
# Column values in order are:
