IDS (Iterative Deconvolution and Stacking) - Fast finite fault inversion

The Iterative Deconvolution and Stacking (IDS) method was introduced by [Zhang2015]. It allows to estimate the kinematic parameters on predefined fault plane(s) by iteratively estimating apparent source time functions for the subfaults. These signals are deconvolved from body wave signals and optimized in an iterative manner.

Different case studies have shown rather good solutions [Zhang2016], [Diao2016], [Zheng2020], which can be obtained within a short time, providing the opportunity for rapid impact assessment.
