Automated shear-wave splitting analysis for single- and multi- layer anisotropic media
Seismica, 2023 Shear-wave velocity anisotropy is present throughout the earth. The strength and orientation of anisotropy can be observed by shear-wave splitting (birefringence) accumulated between earthquake sources and receivers. Seismic deployments are getting ever

Chiral-Nematic Lattice Instability in Charge Density Wave of 1T-TiSe<sub>2</sub>. [PDF]
Adv Sci (Weinh)The charge density wave of 1T‐TiSe2 appears chiral to surface probes yet loses all symmetry in spectroscopic measurements. This study reveals how cooperative condensation of multiple phonon modes stabilizes a chiral monoclinic ground state, while a shallow nematic energy landscape allows the lattice to break the remaining symmetry at negligible cost ...

Experimental observation of water saturation effects on shear wave splitting in synthetic rock with fractures aligned at oblique angles [PDF]
, 2015 Fractured rocks are known to exhibit seismic anisotropy and shear wave splitting (SWS). SWS is commonly used for fractured rock characterization and has been shown to be sensitive to fluid type. The presence of partial liquid/gas saturation is also known

Stress-dependent shear wave splitting and permeability in fractured porous rock
Journal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, 2019 It is well known that shear wave propagates slower across than parallel to a fracture, and as a result, a travelling shear wave splits into two directions when it encounters a fracture.

Complex anisotropy beneath the Peruvian flat slab from frequency-dependent, multiple-phase shear wave splitting analysis [PDF]
, 2013 Flat or shallow subduction is a relatively widespread global occurrence, but the dynamics remain poorly understood. In particular, the interaction between flat slabs and the surrounding mantle flow has yet to be studied in detail.

Shear-wave splitting in the mantle of the pacific [PDF]
Geophysical Journal International, 1994 SUMMARY The bulk of previously known data on seismic anisotropy in the suboceanic mantle was obtained from observations of azimuthal variations of the surface-wave and P, velocities. Our study of azimuthal anisotropy in the mantle of the Pacific is based on observations of shear-wave splitting. The idea of our method of measurement (Vinnik & Farra 1992)

Observations of stress relaxation before earthquakes [PDF]
, 2004 Theory and observations suggest that seismic shear wave splitting, caused by fluid-saturated stress-aligned microcracks, directly monitors low-level deformation before fracturing, faulting and earthquakes occur.

Seismic anisotropy beneath the Chinese Mainland: Constraints from shear wave splitting analyses
Earthquake Research Advances, 2021 We use earthquakes recorded by the China National Seismic Network from 2015 to 2019 and measure shear wave splitting parameters of SKS to study the anisotropic characteristics beneath the mainland of China.
