Marchenko Green’s Function Retrieval in Layered Elastic Media from Two-Sided Reflection and Transmission Data

By solving a Marchenko equation, Green’s functions at an arbitrary (inner) depth level inside an unknown elastic layered medium can be retrieved from single-sided reflection data, which are collected at the top of the medium. To date, it has only been possible to obtain an exact solution if the medium obeyed stringent monotonicity conditions and...
