P-SV wave propagation in heterogeneous media: Velocity‐stress finite‐difference method
TL;DR: In this paper, a finite-difference method for modeling P-SV wave propagation in heterogeneous media is presented, which is an extension of the method I previously proposed for modeling SH-wave propagation by using velocity and stress in a discrete grid, where the stability condition and the P-wave phase velocity dispersion curve do not depend on the Poisson's ratio.

Stress Waves in Solids
TL;DR: A large and growing number of original papers on both the experimental and the theoretical aspects of stress wave propagation is appearing in the scientific literature, and two international conferences solely concerned with the subject have been held during the last five years as mentioned in this paper.

The Resolving Power of Gross Earth Data
George E. Backus,Freeman Gilbert +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors show how to determine whether a given finite set of gross Earth data can be used to specify an Earth structure uniquely except for fine-scale detail, and the shortest length scale which the given data can resolve at any particular depth.
Surface Waves
TL;DR: In this paper, the evanescent field structure over the wave front, as represented by equiphase planes, is identified as one of the most important and easily recognizable forms of surface wave.

Seismic Wave Propagation in Stratified Media
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors focus on elastic wave propagation in stratified media and show how the excitation of elastic waves, within a horizontally stratified structure, can be conveniently developed in terms of reflection and transmission matrices.
