Seismic seiche-related oscillations in Lake Biwa, Japan, after the 2011 Tohoku earthquake

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Seismic seiche-related oscillations caused by Rayleigh waves from large earthquakes are yet to be explored and elucidated comprehensively, then need to accumulate continuously.

Rayleigh waves in symmetry planes of crystals: explicit secular equations and some explicit wave speeds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Rayleigh waves are considered for crystals possessing at least one plane of symmetry. The secular equation is established explicitly for surface waves propagating in any direction of the plane of symmetry, using two different methods.

Rayleigh-wave coupling to atmospheric compression waves* [PDF]

open access: yesBulletin of the Seismological Society of America, 1952
AbstractThe theory of dispersive Rayleigh waves coupled to atmospheric compressional waves is derived for the case of a solid surface layer. Numerical computation of phase and group velocity curves indicates that an additional branch may be introduced to the dispersion curves as a result of air coupling.

An approximate formula for the H/V ratio of Rayleigh waves in compressible pre-stressed elastic half-spaces coated with a thin layer

open access: yesVietnam Journal of Mechanics, 2018
This paper is concerned with the propagation of Rayleigh waves in a compressible pre-stressed elastic half-space coated with a thin compressible pre-stressed elastic layer. The main purpose of the paper is to establish an approximate formula for the H/V

Thermo-visco-elastic Rayleigh waves under the influence of couple-stress and gravity

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 1991
This paper is concerned with thermo-visco-elastic Rayleigh waves under the influence of couple-stresses and gravity. A more general phase velocity equation for these waves is derived.

Standing and travelling waves in cylindrical Rayleigh-Benard convection

open access: yes, 2007
The Boussinesq equations for Rayleigh-Benard convection are simulated for a cylindrical container with an aspect ratio near 1.5. The transition from an axisymmetric stationary flow to time-dependent flows is studied using nonlinear simulations, linear ...

Attenuation of Seismic Energy in the Upper Mantle [PDF]

open access: yes, 1965
The amplitude attenuation and phase dispersion for Love and Rayleigh waves in the period range 50 to 300 sec is determined from two earthquakes by digital techniques.

Rayleigh–bloch waves in CMUT arrays [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Ultrasonics, Ferroelectrics, and Frequency Control, 2014
Using the small-signal electrical equivalent circuit of a capacitive micromachined ultrasonic transducer (CMUT) cell, along with the self and mutual radiation impedances of such cells, we present a computationally efficient method to predict the frequency response of a large CMUT element or array.

Surface waves in granular phononic crystals

open access: yes, 2015
The existence of surface elastic waves at a mechanically free surface of granular phononic crystals is studied. The granular phononic crystals are made of spherical particles distributed periodically on a simple cubic lattice.

Weakly nonlocal Rayleigh waves in orthotropic half-spaces coated by an orthotropic layer with sliding contact

open access: yesVietnam Journal of Mechanics
In this paper, we study the propagation of Rayleigh waves in nonlocal orthotropic half-spaces coated by a nonlocal orthotropic layer with sliding contact using the weakly nonlocal elasticity model.
