Source inversion of W phase: speeding up seismic tsunami warning
S U M M A R Y W phase is a long period phase arriving before S wave. It can be interpreted as superposition of the fundamental, first, second and third overtones of spheroidal modes or Rayleigh waves and has a group velocity from 4.5 to 9 km s−1 over a period range of 100–1000 s. The amplitude of long period waves better represents the tsunami potential of an earthquake. Because of the fast gro...
متن کاملA Strong Ground Motion Catalogue of Selected Records for Shallow Crustal, Near Field Earthquakes in Iran
Understanding strong ground motions in the near-fault areas is important for seismic risk assessment in densely populated areas. In the past, lack of information on strong ground motion for large and moderate earthquakes led to the use of mainly far field large and moderate earthquake records in equations for calculation of the strong ground motion parameters. In this article, we collected and ...
متن کاملCAPjoint , A Computer Software Package for Joint Inversion of Moderate Earthquake Source Parameters with Local and
Accurate earthquake source parameters such as fault mechanism, depth, and moment magnitude are not only important in seismic-hazard assessment, but also are crucial to studies of earthquake rupture processes and seismotectonics. Although large earthquakes (Mw 7+) may cause substantial damage, they occur less frequently. In contrast, moderate earthquakes (Mw 5.0–6.5) occur with much higher frequ...
متن کاملUncertainty estimations for seismic source inversions
S U M M A R Y Source inversion is a widely used practice in seismology. Magnitudes, moment tensors, slip distributions are now routinely calculated and disseminated whenever an earthquake occurs. The accuracy of such models depends on many aspects like the event magnitude, the data coverage and the data quality (instrument response, isolation, timing, etc.). Here, like in any observational prob...
متن کاملExperimental Investigation of Phase Inversion of Liquid-Liquid Systems in a Spray Extraction Column
An experimental study of the phase inversion behavior of liquid-liquid dispersion has been conducted in a spray extraction column for systems of toluene / water, n-hexane/water, CCl4/water, toluene /water + glycerol (25 % wt), toluene + CCl4 (25 % wt) / water and toluene / acetic acid (5 % wt)/water. The effects of physical properties, mass transfer and column geometry...
