Passive retrieval of Rayleigh waves in disordered elastic media.
When averaged over sources or disorder, cross correlation of diffuse fields yields the Green's function between two passive sensors. This technique is applied to elastic ultrasonic waves in an open scattering slab mimicking seismic waves in the Earth's crust. It appears that the Rayleigh wave reconstruction depends on the scattering properties of the elastic slab. Special attention is paid to t...
متن کاملShock waves in disordered media.
We experimentally investigate the interplay between spatial shock waves and the degree of disorder during nonlinear optical propagation in a thermal defocusing medium. We characterize the way the shock point is affected by the amount of disorder and scales with wave amplitude. Evidence for the existence of a phase diagram in terms of nonlinearity and amount of randomness is reported. The result...
متن کاملSecond-order statistics of non-Gaussian fluctuations of coherent waves reflected from disordered media.
We show that the second-order statistics of speckle patterns of scalar waves, multiply scattered on reAection by disordered media, may be non-Gaussian, even though the first-order statistics are Gaussian. This occurs at intermediate sizes of the illuminated samples of the medium that are large enough to produce Gaussian first-order statistics of the scattered field but are small enough to break...
متن کاملPropagation of nonlinear waves in disordered media
We study the propagation of stationary waves in disordered non-linear media described by the nonlinear Schrödinger equation and show that for given boundary conditions and a given coherent wave incident on the sample, the number of solutions of the equation increases exponentially with sample size. We also discuss the ballistic case, the sensitivity of the solutions to the change of external pa...
متن کاملRayleigh waves of arbitrary profile in anisotropic media
The paper deals with surface wave propagation in an orthorhombic elastic half-plane. The general profile of the wave is considered, incorporating the anisotropy effects within the known representation in terms of a single plane harmonic function.
