Reaction-Di usion Fronts in Periodically Layered Media
We compute the e ective wave front speeds of reaction-di usion equations in periodically layered media with coe cents that have small amplitude oscillations around a uniform mean state. We compare them with the corresponding wave front speeds in the uniform state. We analyze a one dimensional model where wave propagation is along the layering direction of the medium and a two dimensional shear ...
متن کاملSolitary Waves in Layered Nonlinear Media
We study longitudinal elastic strain waves in a one-dimensional periodically layered medium, alternating between two materials with different densities and stress-strain relations. If the impedances are different, dispersive effects are seen due to reflection at the interfaces. When the stress-strain relations are nonlinear, the combination of dispersion and nonlinearity leads to the appearance...
متن کاملGeneration of Sh - Type Waves in Layered Anisotropic Elastic Media
A study is made of the generation of SH-type wves at the free surface of a layered anlsotroplc elastic medium due to an impulsive stress discontinuity moving with uniform velocity along the interface of the layered medium. The exact solution for the displacement function is obtained by the Laplace and Fourier transforms combined with the modified Cagnlard method. The numerical results for an im...
متن کاملGeneralized optical theorem for surface waves and layered media.
We present a generalized optical theorem for surface waves. The theorem also applies to body waves since under many circumstances body waves can be written in terms of surface-wave modal summations. This theorem therefore extends the domain of applicability of the optical theorem from homogeneous background media to a general class of body and surface-wave propagation regimes within layered ela...
متن کاملEstimation of Plunge Value in Single- or Multi-Layered Anisotropic Media Using Analysis of Fast Polarization Direction of Shear Waves
Estimation of the fast polarization direction of shear seismic waves that deviate from horizontal axis is a valuable approach to investigate the characteristics of the lower crust and uppermost mantle structures. The lattice preferred orientation of crystals, which is generally parallel to the downward or upward flow of the mantle or crust, is an important reason for the occurrence of fast axis...
