Seismic metamaterial surface for broadband Rayleigh waves attenuation

open access: yesMaterials & Design, 2023
Elastic metamaterials (EMMs) have been widely studied owing to their advantages in controlling the propagation of elastic waves. In the past decade, considerable efforts have been made to attenuate Rayleigh waves using EMMs.

Noise generation in the solid Earth, oceans, and atmosphere, from non-linear interacting surface gravity waves in finite depth [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Oceanic pressure measurements, even in very deep water, and atmospheric pressure or seismic records, from anywhere on Earth, contain noise with dominant periods between 3 and 10 seconds, that is believed to be excited by ocean surface gravity waves. Most

Analysis of the effect of gravity and nonhomogeneity on Rayleigh waves in higher-order elastic-viscoelastic half-space

open access: yesJournal of the Mechanical Behavior of Materials, 2014
In this study, the coupled effects of gravity and nonhomogeneity on Rayleigh waves in an anisotropic layer placed over an isotropic viscoelastic half-space of higher order are discussed. The dispersion properties of waves are derived.

Rayleigh wave nonlinearity [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1993
The elastic nonlinearity in Rayleigh waves is investigated theoretically. Studies have revealed that nonlinearity in Rayleigh waves involves nonlocal as well as local effects [Parker and Talbot, J. Elast. 15, 389 (1985)]. Finite amplitude effects on sound in fluids are entirely local, and the effects on different wavelets are therefore independent.

Transient Propagation and Scattering of Quasi-Rayleigh Waves in Plates: Quantitative comparison between Pulsed TV-Holography Measurements and FC(Gram) elastodynamic simulations [PDF]

open access: green, 2019
We study the scattering of transient, high-frequency, narrow-band quasi-Rayleigh elastic waves by through-thickness holes in aluminum plates, in the framework of ultrasonic nondestructive testing (NDT) based on full-field optical detection.

Non-Hamiltonian features of a classical pilot-wave dynamics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
A bouncing droplet on a vibrated bath can couple to the waves it generates, so that it becomes a propagative walker. Its propulsion at constant velocity means that a balance exists between the permanent input of energy provided by the vibration and the ...

Shear wave generation using a spiral electromagnetic acoustic transducer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
A spiral electromagnetic acoustic transducer (EMAT) is efficient in eddy current generation and has been used for surface defect inspection using Rayleigh waves or thickness gauging based on plane waves in echo mode.

Magnetoelastic Rayleigh wave convolver

open access: yesApplied Physics Letters, 1975
An epoxy−bonded LiNbO3−YIG−LiNbO3 composite structure has been constructed and operated as a magnetoelastic Rayleigh wave convolver with 50−MHz input signals. The acoustic signals were propagated on a (110) YIG surface and the convolution characteristics were studied as a function of the magnitude and direction of the applied magnetic field. Nonuniform

Rayleigh waves in a viscoelastic half-space under initial hydrostatic stress in presence of the temperature field

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 2005
The effect of the temperature and initial hydrostatic stress has been shown on the propagation of Rayleigh waves in a viscoelastic half-space. It has been explained how the velocity of Rayleigh waves depends not only on the parameters pertaining to ...

Lamb wave near field enhancements for surface breaking defects in plates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Near field surface wave ultrasonic enhancements have previously been used to detect surface breaking defects in thick samples using Rayleigh waves. Here, we present analogous surface wave enhancements for Lamb waves propagating in plates.
