Abstract: | The single-scattering solution is implemented in a formulation that makes it possible to accurately handle solid-solid interfaces with the parabolic equation method. Problems involving large contrasts across sloping stratigraphy can be handled by subdividing a vertical interface into a series of two or more scattering problems. The approach can handle complex layering and is applicable to a large class of seismic problems. The solution of the scattering problem is based on an iteration formula, which has improved convergence in the new formulation, and the transverse operator of the parabolic wave equation, which is implemented efficiently in terms of banded matrices. Accurate solutions can often be obtained by using only one iteration. |
