Title: Toward precise solution of one-dimensional velocity inverse problems

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/6435106· OSTI ID:6435106

A family of one-dimensional inverse problems are considered with the goal of reconstructing velocity profiles to reasonably high accuracy. The travel-time variable change is used together with an iteration scheme to produce an effective algorithm for computation. Under modest assumptions the scheme is shown to be convergent.
