Abstract
Assume that two media are laying in a half-space and the interface wall is parallel to the boundary of the half-space. We can directly observe the data near the boundary of the half-space, but we cannot directly observe inside the half-space. In this situation, we try to identify these unknown things by creating artificial explosions and observing on the boundary the waves generated by the explosions. Here, the waves are described by the elastic equation.
