This volume in the Inverse and Ill-Posed Problems Series studiesdynamical inverse problems, i.e. such problems whose data are thevalues of wave fields.
The monograph deals with the problem of determination of one or morecoefficients of a hyperbolic equation or a system of hyperbolicequations. The desired coefficients are functions of point. Mostattention is given to the case where the required functions dependonly on one coordinate. The first chapter of the book deals mainlywith methods of solution of one-dimensional inverse problems. Thesecond chapter focuses on scalar inverse problems of wave propagationin a layered medium. In the final chapter inverse problems forelasticity equations in stratified media and acoustic equations formoving media are given.
This monograph will be of value and interest to researchers in thefields of mathematical physics, geophysics, acoustics, elasticitytheory, and electrodynamics.
