چکیده

We have studied the group and phase speed structure of long-range acoustic arrivals using linear acoustics. Here we present a preliminary study of some of these same paths but now we consider a higher amplitude source necessitating a nonlinear acoustic treatment. This research involves the eventual coupling of the Nonlinear Progressive Wave Equation (NPE) with an Adiabatic Normal Mode (ANM) Model. We use the ANM model (which has limited range-dependent capability) because our previous treatment for the linear problem was very revealing with respect to the physics of the arrival structure.

Long-range propagation of finite-amplitude acoustic waves in an ocean waveguide

A hybrid method coupling nonlinear and linear propagation codes is used to study the nonlinear signature of long-range acoustic propagation for high-amplitude sources in an ocean waveguide. The differences between linear and nonlinear propagation are investigated in deep and shallow water environments. The spectral reshaping that occurs in nonlinear propagation induces two main effects: in shal...

An efficient analytical solution for nonlinear vibrations of a parametrically excited beam

An efficient and accurate analytical solution is provided using the homotopy-Pade technique for the nonlinear vibration of parametrically excited cantilever beams. The model is based on the Euler-Bernoulli assumption and includes third order nonlinear terms arisen from the inertial and curvature nonlinearities. The Galerkin’s method is used to convert the equation of motion to a nonlinear ordin...

Excitation of T-phases by seafloor scattering.

T-phases excited by suboceanic earthquakes are classified into two types: abyssal phases which are excited near the earthquake epicenter at seafloor depths far below the SOFAR velocity channel, and slope T-phases which are excited at continental, or ocean island slopes and ridges at distances up to several hundreds of kilometers from the epicenter. In this article, it is demonstrated that appro...

Waveform Analysis of Ae in Composites

Advanced, waveform based acoustic emission (AE) techniques have been developed to evaluate damage mechanisms in the testing of composite materials. This approach, more recently referred to as Modal AE, provides an enhanced capability to discriminate and eliminate noise signals from those generated by damage mechanisms. Much more precise source location can also be obtained in comparison to conv...

Short Note Component-Dependent Fréchet Sensitivity Kernels and Utility of Three-Component Seismic Records

With the exception of shear-wave splitting and receiver function analyses, the phase or amplitude anomaly of a particular arrival is usually measured on only one of the three-component seismic records. Perfectly good waveforms on the other components are often unused. In this article we show that the different components of the same arrival at the same receiver have different travel-time and am...
