Critical Angle for Reflection from a Water‐Quartz Interface

Determination of Poisson's ratio from pre-critical wide-angle seismic reflection data from the BABEL project

S U M M A R Y The pre-critical wide-angle seismic reflection data collected during the BABEL survey using multireceiver spreads contain high-amplitude P-wave and modeconverted S-wave reflected arrivals. The two phases can be partially separated and their signal-to-noise ratio emphasized by exploiting the multifold nature and the increased sensitivity of velocity analysis afforded by these data ...

RUNNING HEAD : Critical Reflection Supporting a Critical Reflection Process

The increasing focus of reflective practices within higher education settings has left many wondering what a successful process of reflection entails. Reflection based instructional strategies have been promoted as a way to support a transition of knowledge into implementalable skills with little evidence for the effectiveness (Cook, Young, Evensen, 2001). Instructors in higher education, conti...

Shock Transmission and Reflection from a Material Interface and Subsequent Reflection from a Hard Boundary

Brilliant total reflection from a liquid-liquid interface.

In this paper I describe total reflection of great brilliancy that seems to indicate that an interface can be very thin.

Potential theory for shock reflection by a large-angle wedge.

When a plane shock hits a wedge head on, it experiences a reflection, and then a self-similar reflected shock moves outward as the original shock moves forward in time. Experimental, computational, and asymptotic analysis has shown that various patterns of reflected shocks may occur, including regular and Mach reflection. However, most fundamental issues for shock reflection phenomena have not ...
