Magnetoinductive waves in attenuating media [PDF]
AbstractThe capability of magnetic induction to transmit signals in attenuating environments has recently gained significant research interest. The wave aspect—magnetoinductive (MI) waves—has been proposed for numerous applications in RF-challenging environments, such as underground/underwater wireless networks, body area networks, and in-vivo medical ...

Fractional wave equations with attenuation [PDF]
Fractional wave equations with attenuation have been proposed by Caputo [5], Szabo [27], Chen and Holm [7], and Kelly et al. [11]. These equations capture the power-law attenuation with frequency observed in many experimental settings when sound waves travel through inhomogeneous media.

Wave attenuation by flattened vegetation (Scirpus mariqueter)
With the capacity to reduce wave energy and trap sediment, Scirpus mariqueter has become an important native species of annual grass for ecology restoration at the Yangtze Estuary in eastern China. Due to seasonal variances of biophysical characteristics,

Theoretical Analysis of Longitudinal Wave Attenuation in a Stressed Rock With Variable Cross-Section
In this work, the longitudinal wave propagation in stressed rock with variable cross-section is investigated analytically. Considered the stress-sensibility of dynamic elastic modulus and the viscosity of rock, a modified viscoelastic stress-strain ...

THE INFLUENCE OF CURRENTS ON WAVE ATTENUATION
Measurements have been made of wave height decay in a rough bottomed flume for waves alone and for waves combined with 3 following currents. Tests have also been carried out to quantify energy dissipation at the sidewalls under these conditions. Results show that waves attenuate less rapidly when propagating on a following current, with a corresponding

Attenuation of Torsional Waves in Teflon [PDF]
Measurements of the attenuation of torsional waves in a cylindrical rod of circular cross section have been made. Temperature, crystallinity, and axial stress (tension) are varied, and the transmission loss is measured as a function of these variables. The results of the measurements and a description of the experimental technique will be presented.

Attenuation of coda waves in Western Anatolia
Abstract By analyzing the decay of coda wave amplitude, we have determined coda Q,Qc, in Western Anatolia (Turkey). Using the single isotropic scattering model, we analyzed 116 earthquakes which registered at the Gebze station by using five narrow frequency bands centered at 1.5, 3, 6, 8 and 10 Hz.

Gravitons to photons — Attenuation of gravitational waves
In this essay, we examine the response of an Unruh–DeWitt (UD) detector (a quantum two-level system) to a gravitational wave background. The spectrum of the UD detector is of the same form as some scattering processes or three body decays such as muon-electron scattering or muon decay. Based on this similarity, we propose that the UD detector response

Attenuation of dispersed waves [PDF]
A measure of the absorption of elastic waves is the specific absorption coefficient 1/Q. In dispersive mediums, whether the dispersion is due to geometry, inhomogeneity, or both, measurements are often made outside the body and the measurements must be interpreted as to the distribution of values of 1/Q within the body.
