摘要: In this talk I will first review the fundamentals of the mathematical and physical principles associated with wave propagation. Next I will discuss a few aspects in wave propagation such as the complexity of the media, the formats and types of the sources, the interaction among acoustic wave, electromagnetic wave and acoustic waves. I will wrap up the talk by giving a few geophysical examples to demonstrate the application and usefulness of geophysical wave propagation theory in fracture detection, biomedical imaging, geological stratigraphy, and even through wall radar for detecting human vital sign detections.
