Abstract:
We consider the recovery of an anisotropic perturbation of an isotropic elastic body. When the reference isotropic body is homogeneous we show that the anisotropic perturbation can be fully determined by single-scattered waves. When the reference model is heterogeneous, the problem can be reduced to certain tensor tomography problems for which related results will also be discussed.
