Teleseismic shear-wave splitting analyses are often performed by reversing the splitting process through the application of frequency- or time-domain operations aimed at minimizing the transverse-component energy of waveforms.

Gravitational-wave implications for structure formation: A second-order approach
Gravitational waves are propagating undulations in the spacetime fabric, which interact very weakly with their environment. In cosmology, gravitational-wave distortions are produced by most of the inflationary scenarios and their anticipated detection ...

The Indo-Burma subduction zone lies on the eastern boundary of the 1500 km long Alpine-Himalayan orogenic belt. Despite highly oblique plate motion with limited arc development, convergence is still ongoing with the potential to generate megathrust earthquakes that could affect more than 140 million people. This sub-aerial subduction system provides an

Seismic waves with tensile stress, high amplitude, and low frequency are most likely to trigger block instability and sliding. Blocks with a single sliding surface are more prone to movement than those with multiple constraints, and roof‐positioned blocks are especially vulnerable to slide.

Effect of Al on the sharpness of the MgSiO_3 perovskite to post-perovskite phase transition [PDF]
By means of static ab-initio computations we investigate the influence of Al on the recently discovered perovskite to post-perovskite phase transition in MgSiO_3. We examine three substitution mechanisms for Al in the two structures: MgSi → AlAl; SiSiO →

Tensor Perturbations in Anisotropically Curved Cosmologies
Besides expanding anisotropically, the universe can also be anisotropic at the level of its (spatial) curvature. In particular, models with anisotropic curvature and isotropic expansion leads both to a $\Lambda$CDM-like phenomenology and to an isotropic ...

This review elucidates the velocity–dispersion–attenuation coupling mechanisms of wave propagation in rock masses, compares six representative models, and reveals how pressure, temperature, mineral composition, and anisotropy jointly control dynamic responses in complex geological media.

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
