fteikpy is a Python library that computes accurate first arrival traveltimes in 2D and 3D heterogeneous isotropic velocity models. The algorithm handles properly the curvature of wavefronts close to the source which can be placed without any problem between grid points.
The code is based on FTeik implemented in Python and compiled just-in-time with numba.
Forward modeling:
- Compute traveltimes in 2D and 3D Cartesian grids with the possibility to use a different grid spacing in Z, X and Y directions,
- Compute traveltime gradients at runtime or a posteriori,
- A posteriori 2D and 3D ray-tracing.
Parallel:
- Traveltime grids are seemlessly computed in parallel for different sources,
- Raypaths from a given source to different locations are also evaluated in parallel.
The recommended way to install fteikpy and all its dependencies is through the Python Package Index:
pip install fteikpy --user
Otherwise, clone and extract the package, then run from the package location:
pip install . --user
To test the integrity of the installed package, check out this repository and run:
pytest
Refer to the online documentation for detailed description of the API and examples.
Alternatively, the documentation can be built using Sphinx:
pip install -r doc/requirements.txt
sphinx-build -b html doc/source doc/build
The following example computes the traveltime grid in a 3D homogeneous velocity model:
import numpy as np
from fteikpy import Eikonal3D
# Velocity model
velocity_model = np.ones((8, 8, 8))
dz, dx, dy = 1.0, 1.0, 1.0
# Solve Eikonal at source
eik = Eikonal3D(velocity_model, gridsize=(dz, dx, dy))
tt = eik.solve((0.0, 0.0, 0.0))
# Get traveltime at specific grid point
t1 = tt[0, 1, 2]
# Or get traveltime at any point in the grid
t2 = tt(np.random.rand(3) * 7.0)
