This project focuses on modeling and analyzing surface wave propagation in complex 3D media using direct and inverse methods. It involves studying seismic wave behavior in isotropic and anisotropic heterogeneities, considering mode coupling and diffraction effects to understand phase, amplitude, and polarization anomalies. The research aims to create phase velocity maps at various depths and analyze synthetic seismic data to improve imaging techniques. By investigating scattering principles and multiple iterations of surface wave interactions, the project seeks to enhance seismic imaging capabilities in complex geological environments.
