An inversion method that stabilizes the multiparameter inverse problem for a constant background elastic isotropic medium is developed. The inverse problem is formulated in the wavenumber domain and the operators acting on the individual elastic parameters are displayed and analysed. From here it is noticed that for certain scattering angles some parameters produce no scattering. This scattering angle dependence is combined with the frequency dependence of the parameters to reduce the multiparameter inverse problem to a single parameter inversion problem, which is known to yield stable results. The method developed here is an extension of an acoustical medical imaging method by Norton (1983) to the 'elastic seismic imaging problem which inherits limited view constraints. This method is compared to the elastic extension of a multiparameter acoustic inversion method developed by Devaney (1985) and the resulting improvements in stability are demonstrated on synthetic examples. |
