How this service works
Resolve all reflected/transmitted P/SV coefficients of a supplied interface.
Output
Returns the complete set of reflected and transmitted P and SV wave coefficients (both displacement and traction representations) for a planar interface between two elastic half-spaces, computed via the Zoeppritz formulation for the specified incidence angle and layer elastic parameters.
Example use cases
AVO analysis for reservoir characterization
“I need the full set of reflected and transmitted P/SV coefficients at a shale-sand boundary — upper layer Vp=2800, Vs=1400, density=2.2 and lower layer Vp=3500, Vs=2000, density=2.5 — at an incidence angle of 20 degrees, for my AVO analysis.”
Seismic modeling at a water-bottom interface
“Can you compute the Zoeppritz P/SV displacement and traction scattering at a water-seafloor interface? Water layer: Vp=1500, Vs=0.001, density=1.03; seafloor sediment: Vp=1800, Vs=600, density=1.8; incidence angle is 15 degrees.”
Wave mode conversion study at crustal boundary
“For a study on P-to-SV mode conversion at a mid-crustal discontinuity, give me all reflected and transmitted coefficients — upper crust Vp=6000, Vs=3500, density=2.7 and lower crust Vp=7000, Vs=4000, density=3.0 — at 40 degrees incidence.”

Endpoint
POSThttps://detect.halowerk.com/v1/F-TD2000-GEO-INDUSTRY-B006/zoeppritz-psv-displacement-traction-interface-scattering?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need the complete, exact Zoeppritz P/SV reflection and transmission coefficient set — including both displacement and traction components — for a planar elastic interface at a specific incidence angle. It is preferable over approximate reflectivity methods (Shuey, Aki-Richards) when full-wavefield accuracy is required, especially at large angles or for mode-converted SV waves. Best suited for geophysical modeling, AVO analysis, seismic wave partitioning studies, and synthetic seismogram generation.
Side effects
- Incidence angle outside 0–75 degree range returns validation error
- Layer velocities or densities outside allowed min/max bounds cause schema rejection
- Zero or near-zero S-velocity in a layer may produce numerical instability or degenerate results
- Missing required fields (upper/lower velocities, density, incidence angle) returns 400 Bad Request
- Invalid claim object causes authentication/authorization failure
- Network timeout or service unavailability returns 5xx error
