Software

PyFWI

We developed a playground to interactively simulate the behavior of acoustic waves and FWI (Full Waveform Inversion) in inhomogenuous media.
You can find more information at Seismic Imaging.

Eikonalfm

For my master's thesis, i implemented the Fast Marching algorithm for solving the eikonal equation
$\lvert \nabla\tau(x) \rvert^2 = \frac{1}{c^2(x)}$
(and most of all a factored version) as a Python extension in C++. The source code and more information can be found on GitHub. The easiest way to install this package is via pip.
