High Resolution/High Fidelity Seismic Imaging and Parameter Estimation for Geological Structure and Material Characterization. (Final Report, April 15, 2001-April 14, 2004).
In this project, we develop new theories and methods for multi-domain one-way wave equation based propagators, and apply these techniques to seismic modeling, seismic imaging, seismic illumination and model parameter estimation in 3D complex environments. The major progress of this project includes: (1) the development of the dual-domain wave propagators; (2) exploring the information in the local angle domain; and (3) elastic-wave imaging.
