Abstract

- A new formula for estimating 3-D density of discontinuities with trace exposure is proposed.
- This equation directly reflects the relation between 3-D density and other parameters.
- Two corresponding adjustment factors (FS and FO) are defined.
- Roughly estimating discontinuity 3-D density for practice purpose is suggested.
