An Iterative Solution to Seismic Tomography
, by Kamal Al-Yahya
The tomographic problem is posed as an inverse problem. The iterative method, which is practical for geophysical tomography, is investigated and the advantaged and limitations of this method are displayed through simulated examples of cross-hole and surface-to-hole geometries. The generalized inverse approach is investigated in another paper (Al-Yahya, this SEP report).
