What is it about?

this paper shows you how to find seismic raypaths from a source to a receiver in viscoelastic rocks, so that one can calculate the traveltime and attenuation of seismic wave along the raypath.

Why is it important?

Finding the seismic raypaths from sources and receivers is fundmental for estimation of the traveltime and attenuation of seismic wave in rocks. Using the raypaths and observed traveltimes and attenuations enables us to reconstruct the physical parameter structure image of the underground.

Perspectives

I am very happy to encourage and help my postdoc and my colleagues to write this paper, which shows our contribution to seismic ray tracing in viscoelastic anisotropic media.
