An informative solution to a seismological inverse problem.

چکیده
Preliminary results are presented that infer that 2 sec should be added to the tabular values for P phases and 4 sec to the tabular values for S phases of seismic travel times. From seismic evidence, the radius of the inner core of the Earth is 1229-1250 km; the radius of the outer core is 3482-3485 km. Data are presented relating resolving power with error of measurement for the Earth's mantle.

The use of inverse quadratic radial basis functions for the solution of an inverse heat problem
In this paper, a numerical procedure for an inverse problem of simultaneously determining an unknown coefficient in a semilinear parabolic equation subject to the specification of the solution at an internal point along with the usual initial boundary conditions is considered. The method consists of expanding the required approximate solution as the elements of the inverse quadrati...
متن کاملAn iterative method for the Hermitian-generalized Hamiltonian solutions to the inverse problem AX=B with a submatrix constraint
In this paper, an iterative method is proposed for solving the matrix inverse problem $AX=B$ for Hermitian-generalized Hamiltonian matrices with a submatrix constraint. By this iterative method, for any initial matrix $A_0$, a solution $A^*$ can be obtained in finite iteration steps in the absence of roundoff errors, and the solution with least norm can be obtained by choosing a special kind of...

متن کاملSolving the inverse problem of determining an unknown control parameter in a semilinear parabolic equation
The inverse problem of identifying an unknown source control param- eter in a semilinear parabolic equation under an integral overdetermina- tion condition is considered. The series pattern solution of the proposed problem is obtained by using the weighted homotopy analysis method (WHAM). A description of the method for solving the problem and nding the unknown parameter is derived. Finally, tw...
