Seismic Modelling and Inversion

Methods for modelling wave propagation in one-dimensional and three-dimensional anisotropic elastic media. Seismic inversion is defined as fitting the data to a model defined by parameters which can be estimated using Bayes or maximum likelihood techniques. Numerical solution of linear and non-linear least-squares problems. Parameter estimation and migration in anisotropic elastic media. Linear and quadratic approximations of the reflection coefficients.

Understanding of advanced seismic methods.
