ESTIMATION OF MODEL UNCERTAINTY OF S-WAVE VELOCITY PROFILE FROM INVERSION OF SURFACE-WAVE PHASE VELOCITY USING MCMC METHOD

Velocity Inversion with an Iterative Normal Incidence Point (NIP) Wave Tomography with Model-Based Common Diffraction Surface (CDS) Stack

Normal Incidence Point (NIP) wave tomography inversion has been recently developed to generate a velocity model using Common Reflection Surface (CRS) attributes, which is called the kinematic wavefield attribute. In this paper, we propose to use the model based Common Diffraction Surface (CDS) stack method attributes instead of data driven Common Reflection Surface attributes as an input data p...

Breaking Wave Velocity Estimation

A Study of the Wave Propagation Velocity in Granular Soils Using Discrete Element Method (DEM)

In the present paper, discrete element method (DEM) is used to study wave propagation phenomenon in granular soils. The effect of factors such as coefficient of friction, frequency, normal stiffness and soil gradation on the wave velocity is studied. Using the wall motion based on the sinusoidal function is the method of loading used in this simulation, through which the pressure wave is transf...

On measuring surface-wave phase velocity from station-station

7 We apply two different algorithms to measure surface-wave phase velocity, as a function of 8 frequency, from seismic ambient noise recorded at pairs of stations from a large European 9 network. The two methods are based on consistent theoretical formulations, but differ in the 10 implementation: one method involves the time-domain cross-correlation of signal recorded 11 at different stations;...

estimation of carotid artery pulse wave velocity by doppler ultrasonography

background: pulse wave velocity (pwv) is widely used for estimating the stiffness of an artery. v arious invasive and non-invasive methods have been developed to determine pwv over the years. in the present research , the non-invasive estimation of the pwv of large arteries was used as an index for arterial stiffness. methods: a dynamic model based on the navier-stokes equations coupled to elas...
