EDITORIAL REVIEWS


Product Description
Bridging the gap between introductory textbooks and advanced monographs, this book provides the necessary mathematical tools to tackle seismological problems and demonstrates how to apply them. Including student exercises, for which solutions are available on a dedicated website, it appeals to advanced undergraduate and graduate students. It is also a useful reference volume for researchers wishing to "brush up" on fundamentals before they study more advanced topics in seismology.

The Seismic Wavefield: Volume 1, Introduction and Theoretical Development

The Seismic Wavefield: Volume 1, Introduction and Theoretical Development
by B. L. N. Kennett (Author)

The Seismic Wavefield provides a guide to the understanding of seismograms in terms of physical propagation processes within the Earth. The focus is on the observation of earthquakes and man-made sources on all scales, for both body waves and surface waves. Volume I begins with a survey of the structure of the Earth and the nature of seismic wave propagation using examples of observed seismograms. The second part provides a full development of the theoretical background for seismic waves....

Wave Propagation in Elastic Solids (North-Holland Series in Applied Mathematics and Mechanics)

Wave Propagation in Elastic Solids (North-Holland Series in Applied Mathematics and Mechanics)
by Jan Achenbach (Author)

The propagation of mechanical disturbances in solids is of interest in many branches of the physical scienses and engineering. This book aims to present an account of the theory of wave propagation in elastic solids. The material is arranged to present an exposition of the basic concepts of mechanical wave propagation within a one-dimensional setting and a discussion of formal aspects of elastodynamic theory in three dimensions, followed by chapters expounding on typical wave propagation...
