Seismic waves and seismic barriers

Acoustical Physics, 2011
The basic idea of seismic barrier is to protect an area occupied by a building or a group of buildings from seismic waves. Depending on nature of seismic waves that are most probable in a specific region, different kinds of seismic barriers are suggested.

Multiple scattering of seismic waves

Ultrasonics, 2002
We present theory and numerical simulations to model seismic wave propagation in the Earth crust. We compare them to observations made in Mexico.

Seismic Wave Transmission

1956
When an earthquake occurs, energy, which may reach the order of 1025 ergs in the greatest earthquakes is released, within a few seconds or less, from a focal region inside the Earth whose linear dimensions may be of the order of several kilometres. The (somewhat indefinite) centre of the focal region is called the focus.

Seismic wave modeling for seismic imaging

The Leading Edge, 2009
Many scientific applications require accurate modeling of seismic wave propagation in complex media. These objectives can include fundamental understanding of seismic wave propagation of the Earth on a global scale, including fluid envelopes, mitigation of seismic risk with better quantitative estimates of seismic hazard, and improved exploitation of ...

Analysis of a Polarized Seismic Wave Model

IEEE Seventh SP Workshop on Statistical Signal and Array Processing, 1996
We present a model for polarized seismic waves where the data are collected by three-component geophone receivers. The model is based on two parameters describing the polarization properties of the waveforms. These parameters are the ellipticity and the orientation angle of the polarization ellipse.

Electron microscopy of seismic waves

Journal of Microscopy
AbstractChanges in the surrounding environment, if transmitted to the electron microscope, are frequently perceived as noise that diminishes the quality of the images. However, in fact, ‘noises’ contain rich information about the environment. This work reports a very rare event where aberration‐corrected HAADF‐STEM images were acquired during the ...

Seismic Shear Waves in Engineering

Journal of the Geotechnical Engineering Division, 1974
Measurements of seismic shear wave velocity and absorption coefficient can find use in soil and rock mechanics, foundation studies, structures, slope stability analysis, and the determination of dynamic elastic moduli. Shear waves in engineering studies must be separated from compressional, Rayleigh, and Love wave arrivals.
