The problem of fitting a material property of the earth to a certain model by
analysing a returned seismic signal is investigated here. Analysis proceeds with
methods taken from the theory of inverse problems. Seismic wave inversion is tack-
led by minimisation of the objective function with respect to the model parameters.
Absorbing boundary conditions are implemented using an exponentially decaying
ansatz. / Physics / Ph. D. (Physics)
