Elastic properties of silicate melts: Implications for low velocity zones at the lithosphere-asthenosphere boundary. [PDF]
Low seismic velocity regions in the mantle and crust are commonly attributed to the presence of silicate melts. Determining melt volume and geometric distribution is fundamental to understanding planetary dynamics.

Relationship between Shear Wave Velocity and SPT-N Value for Residual Soils
The shear wave velocity (Vs) is an important dynamic parameter in the field of geotechnical engineering. One of the surface wave methods is Spectral Analysis of Surface Wave (SASW) has received attention in obtaining the shear wave velocity (Vs) profile ...

Fire-hose instability of inhomogeneous plasma flows with heat fluxes
We study the effects of heat flows and velocity shear on the parallel firehose instability in weakly collisional plasma flow. For this purpose we apply an anisotropic 16-moments MHD fluid closure model that takes into account the pressure and temperature

Uncertainty in Shear-Wave Velocity Profiles
AbstractThis paper considers the uncertainty in the shear wave velocity (Vs) of soil and rock profiles for use in earthquake site response calculations. This uncertainty is an important contributor to uncertainty in site response, which in turn is an important contributor to uncertainty in earthquake ground motions and in seismic hazard.

Alfvén-Wave Instability of Current Sheets in Force-Free Collisionless Plasmas [PDF]
If the current sheet between adjacent twisted magnetic flux tubes is sufficiently thin, the electron flow velocity becomes comparable to the Alfvén velocity and can destabilize collisionless Alfvén waves.

Non-invasive Evaluation of Aortic Stiffness Dependence with Aortic Blood Pressure and Internal Radius by Shear Wave Elastography and Ultrafast Imaging [PDF]
Elastic properties of arteries have long been recognized as playing a major role in the cardiovascular system. However, non-invasive in vivo assessment of local arterial stiffness remains challenging and imprecise as current techniques rely on indirect ...
