Biography

Welcome to my page, I’m a PhD student working with the Seismic Wave Analysis Group (SWAG) on research topics related to Full-Waveform Inversion (FWI) for anisotropic media, mainly VTI media.

Research Interests

Derivation and analysis of the traveltime sensitivity kernels using the unwrapped phase for anisotropic media, multi-parameter inversion for vertical transverse isotropic (VTI) acoustic media, study and analysis of multi-component seismic data inversion.
