Dalla quarta di copertina

This thesis adopts the relative back-projection method to dramatically reduce swimming artifacts by identifying the rupture fronts in the time window of a reference station; this led to a faster and more accurate image of the rupture processes of earthquakes. Mitigating the damage caused by earthquakes is one of the primary goals of seismology, and includes saving more people s lives by devising seismological approaches to rapidly analyze an earthquake s rupture process. The back-projection method described in this thesis can make that a reality.
