Major Research Areas:
Development and application of computational methods
to simulate and invert seismic wave propagation. Earthquake scenario
simulations and aspects of shaking hazard in seismically active regions. Full
waveform inversion of seismograms for Earth’s structure. Global wave
propagation, deep structure and related geodynamic issues. Observations, theory and modelling of
rotational ground motions with optical technologies and its application to
structural inversion, source processes and earthquake engineering. External
forcing of seismic events. See movie on ROMY ring laser from Science here.
