Numerical Modeling of Seismic Wave Propagation (Geophysics Reprints Series, No 13)

by Kevin R. Kelly

The volume defines modeling to mean finite-difference and finite-element modeling and includes 38 papers on development of numerical modeling in exploration seismology. The first two chapters cover the historical development of algorithms and include references to the more popular algorithms currently used. The last two chapters address specific issues associated with the use of the algorithms in the presence of highly irregular inhomogeneities and how to truncate the model laterally without introducing artificial reflections and other artifacts.
