Numerical Simulations of Seismic Wave Propagation in Anisotropic and Heterogeneous Earth Models: The Japan Subduction Zone

<p>This thesis involved studies of the seismic wave propagation in fully anisotropic and heterogeneous Earth models, and the seismic velocity structures in the Japan subduction zone derived from the observations, using both forward modeling and tomographic methods. All the simulations of seis...
