The anelastic structure and deep geology of the Derbyshire Dome from high frequency Rayleigh waves. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1984
This work is an investigation of the anelastic structure of the Derbyshire Dome and adjacent areas from the analysis of high frequency, 0.6 - 4.2 Hz, fundamental mode Rayleigh waves observed from quarry blasts within the study area.

On the causality of the Rayleigh wave [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Mechanics of Materials and Structures, 2016
An explicit hyperbolic-elliptic formulation for surface Rayleigh waves is analysed with an emphasis on the causality of obtained results. As an example, a 3D moving load problem for a distributed vertical load is considered. A simple approximate solution is derived for a near-resonant regime, and the related point load solution is recast as a limiting ...

A review on microtremor H/V spectral ratio method

open access: yes地球与行星物理论评, 2021
The microtremor H/V spectral ratio is the ratio of the horizontal component to the vertical component of the ambient seismic noise at different frequencies, recorded at the earth surface.

Viscoelastic Rayleigh waves II [PDF]

open access: yesQuarterly of Applied Mathematics, 1978
The number of possible surface waves on a viscoelastic half-space is investigated numerically as a function of the material parameters. The results are applied to simple theoretical models of viscoelastic behavior and also to experimental data. It is concluded that two surface waves are possible on some rocks and on nearly all solid polymers.

Rayleigh–Taylor shock waves [PDF]

open access: yesPhysics of Fluids, 2007
Beginning from a state of hydrostatic equilibrium, in which a heavy gas rests atop a light gas in a constant gravitational field, Rayleigh–Taylor instability at the interface will launch a shock wave into the upper fluid. We have performed a series of large-eddy simulations which suggest that the rising bubbles of light fluid act like pistons ...

Wave propagation in nonlocal orthotropic micropolar elastic solids

open access: yesArchives of Mechanics, 2021
The presented paper is concerned with the propagation of Rayleigh waves in an orthotropic nonlocal micropolar elastic half-space. The main aim of the paper is to derive dispersion equations of Rayleigh wave as well as Stroh formalism for the orthotropic ...

Shallow S-wave Velocity Profile Estimation using Surface Velocity and Microtremor HVSR with a Linear Velocity Increase Approach

open access: yesJournal of Mathematical and Fundamental Sciences, 2023
We propose a simple method for 1D S-wave velocity (Vs) profile estimation using a measured surface S-wave velocity (V1) and peak frequency of the observed microtremor horizontal-to-vertical spectral ratio (HVSR).
