Seismic waves as a study in mathematical modeling

Focused on advanced wave propagation in complex media, *Waves & Rays Seismology* also uses seismology to examine how mathematical models describe physical phenomena. Its chapters apply shared mathematical methods and strategies across different problems, connecting the subject’s physical and abstract dimensions. Solved exercises accompany each chapter, while substantial appendices provide detailed discussions of the mathematical methods. Together, these features make the book useful both as a structured course text and as a resource for working through its methods independently.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Students and researchers seeking advanced study of seismic wave propagation
  • Lecturers teaching seismology or mathematical modeling
  • Independent learners who value solved exercises and detailed mathematical appendices

Book overview

This is a book on seismology dealing with advanced aspects of wave propagation in complex media. It can also be viewed as a book on mathematical modelling, wherein the accuracy of describing seismic phenomena exemplifies the modelling itself. The book gives an insight into the power of abstractness by applying the same mathematical methods and strategies to solve a variety of different physical problems.

This book covers a broad range of topics in an advanced yet accessible manner. Each chapter is accompanied by a number of solved exercises, which render the book convenient for a lecturer and facilitate its use for an independent study. The details of mathematical methods are discussed in the appendices, which form a substantial portion of the book.
