This PDF
book Seismic imaging: a practical approach covers the following topics related
to Seismology : Introduction, Wave propagation, Refraction surveying, Seismic
tomography, Full waveform inversion, Hybrid seismic imaging, Integrated seismic
study Focus on “Cigéo”, the French geological repository project.
This book covers the
following topics: Upper mantle discontinuities, Seismic scattering, Earthquake
location methods, Seismic tomography, Back-projection methods, Pulse shapes,
spectra, and stress drop, Earthquake scaling and energy, Earthquake triggering.
This note provides an understanding about
the fundamental concepts of seismic wave propagation. Topics covered includes:
basic theorems in dynamic elasticity, representation of the seismic source and
seismic interferometry, elastic wave ropagation, wave potentials, wave
excitation from a point source, ray theory, surface waves , seismic anisotropy.
The material is based on several textbooks, monographs and journal
articles. Though the material is clearly far from well elaborated it can be
useful for students who want to learn basics of theory of seismology. Topics
covered includes: Basic Relations Of Continuum Mechanics, Seismic Source,
Methods Of Solution Of The Equation Of Motion, Elastic Waves In Unbounded
Homogeneous Isotropic Medium, Reflection And Transmission Of Plane Waves At A
Plane Interface, Surface Waves, Seismic Response Of A System Of Horizontal
Layers Over a Halfspace To A Vertically Incident Plane SH Wave, The Ray Method.
This book covers the following Topics:
Concepts in Classical Seismology, Seismic Waves, Seismic Tomography, Theory of
Seismic Source, Retrieval of Seismic Source Parameters, Seismic Source
Parameters, Physics of Earthquakes, Earthquakes and Plate Motion.
