The differential Kuster–Toksöz rock physics model for predicting S-wave velocity

Prediction model of limestone rock mass quality, using seismic wave velocity (Case study: Sarvak formation in Bakhtiari dam site)

The purpose of this study was to develop a model for the estimation of rock mass classification of Sarvak limestone in the Bakhtiari dam site, south-west (SW) Iran. Q system had been used as the starting point for the rock mass classification. This method was modified for sedimentary rock mass which is known as Qsrm. Because Qsrm considers a wide range of rock mass propert...

A P wave velocity model of Earth ' s core

Present Earth core models derived from the retrieval of global Earth structure are based on absolute travel times, mostly from the International Seismological Centre (ISC), and/or free-oscillation eigenfrequencies. Many core phase data are left out of these constructions, e.g., PKP differential travel times, amplitude ratios, and waveforms. This study is an attempt to utilize this additional in...

A one-dimensional model for variations of longitudinal wave velocity under different thermal conditions

Ultrasonic testing is a versatile and important nondestructive testing method. In many industrial applications, ultrasonic testing is carried out at relatively high temperatures. Since the ultrasonic w...

S-ROCK: Chebyshev Methods for Stiff Stochastic Differential Equations

We present and analyze a new class of numerical methods for the solution of stiff stochastic differential equations (SDEs). These methods, called S-ROCK (for stochastic orthogonal Runge–Kutta Chebyshev), are explicit and of strong order 1 and possess large stability domains in the mean-square sense. For mean-square stable stiff SDEs, they are much more efficient than the standard explicit metho...
