Direct and Inverse Problems in Wave Propagation and Applications

This book is the third volume of three volume series recording the 'Radon Special Semester 2011 on Multiscale Simulation & Analysis in Energy and the Environment' taking place in Linz, Austria, October 3-7, 2011. The volume surveys recent developments in the analysis of wave propagation problems. The topics covered include aspects of the forward problem and problems in inverse problems, as well as applications in the earth sciences. The book records the achievements of Workshop 3 'Wave Propagation and Scattering, Inverse Problems and Applications in Energy and the Environment'. It brings together key numerical mathematicians whose interest is in the analysis and computation of wave propagation and scattering problems, and in inverse problems, together with practitioners from engineering and industry whose interest is in the applications of these core problems.
