The effects of viscoelastic filled rock joints on wave propagation are of great significance in rock engineering. The solutions in time domain for plane longitudinal ( P-) and transverse ( S-) waves propagation across a viscoelastic rock joint are derived ...
Multiscale or multiphysics partial differential equations are used to model a wide range of physical systems with various applications, e.g. from material and natural science to problems in biology or engineering. When the ratio between the smallest scale ...
Modeling wave propagation in highly heterogeneous media is of prime importance in engineering applications of diverse nature such as seismic inversion, medical imaging or the design of composite materials. The numerical approximation of such multiscale phy ...
In this study, based on multipole expansion method an analytical treatment is presented for the anti-plane scattering of SH-waves by an arbitrarily oriented elliptic cavity/crack which is embedded near the interface between exponentially graded and homogen ...
Folding of the earth's crust, wrinkling of the skin, rippling of fruits, vegetables and leaves are all examples of natural structures that can have periodic buckling. Periodic buckling is also present in engineering structures such as compressed lattices, ...
Spatial sound rendering methods that use B-format have moved from static to signal-dependent, making B-format signal analysis a crucial part of B-format decoders. In the established B-format signal analysis methods, the acquired sound field is commonly mod ...
Though obliquely incident plane wave across rock fractures has been extensively investigated by theoretical analysis, the quantitative identification of each wave emerged from fractures has not been achieved either in numerical simulation or laboratory exp ...
In this paper, we carry out a numerical dispersion analysis for the linear two-dimensional elastodynamics equations approximated by means of NURBS-based Isogeometric Analysis in the framework of the Galerkin method; specifically, we consider the analysis o ...
Seismic response of joints which are found to be ubiquitous in rock masses is of great interest to rock engineers, geophysicists and seismologists. In the past years, wave propagation across rock joints has been the subject of extensive theoretical and exp ...
Electromagnetic time reversal (EMTR) has been shown to be an efficient method for locating faults in AC and DC power grids. In the available literature, the back-propagation medium has been considered to have identical losses as the direct-time medium. How ...
