Full waveform inversion in an anisotropic world Where are the parameters hiding? (EET 10)
By T.A. Alkhalifah.
Description
This expanded document offers a gentle yet scientific introduction to the hot topic of full waveform inversion (FWI) with a focus on its practical application to anisotropic media. The book includes discussion of a mix of classical developments in FWI based on a simple framework, as well as critical new developments that address current challenges. Recent FWI case study results, as well as our experience with imaging seismic data, suggest the necessity of taking the anisotropic nature of the Earth into consideration. Unlike elasticity or attenuation, anisotropy actually effects the kinemati...
