Dynamic stress variations due to shear faults in a plane-layered medium

Discrete Time Solution of Plane P - SV Waves in a Plane Layered Medium

DISCRETE TIME SOLUTION OF PLANE P-SV WAVES IN A PLANE LAYERED MEDIUM by Clint Wellington Frasier Submitted to the Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. For plane waves at normal incidence to a layered, elastic medium both the forward and inverse discrete time problems have been previously solved. Here, the fo...

Shear Localization due to Strain Softening in Side Pressed Cylinders

In this paper, shear localization due to strain softening in sidepressed cylinders, is inverstigated. Shear localization causes formation of macroscopic shear bands which can be obsserved in the metallographic cross-section. In this paper, for the first time a method is presented in which a simple two-slice model is used to study the formation of shear bands. The results obtained form this mode...

Seismic Waves Due to a Shear Fault in a Semi-infinite Medium Part Ii: Moving Source

doubling the corresponding displacements for an infinite medium. The vertical component Uz is much disturbed by the free surface. (2) The SP wave has an appreciable amplitude comparable to that of P wave as pointed out for a point source case by KAWASAKI et al. (1973). Especially in such cases as shallow sources propagate upward, the SP wave becomes a remarkably marked phase. Hence, careful exa...
