Combined imaging and velocity estimation by Joint Migration Inversion

Seismic imaging projects aim to reveal the structure of the earths crust from seismic data. These projects typically include three separate processing steps, being: • attenuation of multiple reflections in the seismic data. • estimating seismic wave propagation velocities from the seismic data. • mapping the measured reflection data to the...

Imaging of material inhomogeneities with flexural waves

The detection of inhomogeneities in plates or plate-like structures constitutes a major problem in the field of non-destructive testing. For a few decades, classical techniques based on X-ray radiography have - as far as possible - been complemented and replaced by the usage of vibrations or acoustical waves due to the fact that these are less...
