Perfect for senior undergraduates and first-year graduate students
in geophysics, physics, mathematics, geology and engineering, this
book is devoted exclusively to seismic wave theory. The result is
an invaluable teaching tool, with its detailed derivations of
formulas, clear explanations of topics, exercises along with
selected answers, and an additional set of exercises with derived
answers on the book's website. Some highlights of the text include:
a review of vector calculus and Fourier transforms and an
introduction to tensors, which prepare readers for the chapters to
come; and a detailed discussion on computing reflection and
transmission coefficients, a topic of wide interest in the field; a
discussion in later chapters of plane waves in anisotropic and
anelastic media, which serves as a useful introduction to these two
areas of current research in geophysics. Students will learn to
understand seismic wave theory through the book's clear and concise
pedagogy.
