Mathematical models for passive imaging II: Effective Hamiltonians associated to surface waves
نویسنده
چکیده
In the present paper which follows our previous paper “Mathematical models for passive imaging I: general background”, we discuss the case of surface waves in a medium which is stratified near its boundary at some scale comparable to the wave length. We discuss how the propagation of such waves is governed by effective Hamiltonians on the boundary. The results are certainly not new, but we have been unable to find a precise reference. They are very close to results in adiabatic theory.

متن کاملSemiclassical Analysis of Elastic Surface Waves
Abstract. In this paper, we present a semiclassical description of surface waves or modes in an elastic medium near a boundary, in spatial dimension three. The medium is assumed to be essentially stratified near the boundary at some scale comparable to the wave length. Such a medium can also be thought of as a surficial layer (which can be thick) overlying a half space. The analysis is based on...
متن کاملColour Emotion Models, CIELAB Colour Coordinates, and Iranian Emotional Responses
Ten colour emotional scales, namely, "Warm Cool", "Active-Passive", "Like-Dislike", "Clean-Dirty", "Fresh-Stale", "Modern-Classical", "Heavy-Light", "Hard- Soft", "Tense-Relaxed", and "Masculine-Feminine"are investigated for single-colour stimuli in CIELAB colour space within a psychophysical experiment by forty observers. The relationships between Iranian colour emotional responses and CIELAB ...
متن کاملImaging the solid Earth with seismic noise
The correlation of ambient vibrations of the Earth yields the impulse response between two passive sensors as if one was a source. This provides the opportunity to image the Earth beneath regional seismic arrays. In this paper, we present imaging of the lithosphere in Europe based on surface Rayleigh waves extracted from continuous record of the seismic noise. We also recall a brief history of ...
متن کاملSemi-classical analysis and passive imaging
The propagation of elastic waves inside the earth provides us information’s about the geological structure of the earth’s interior. Since the beginning of seismology, people are using waves created by earthquakes or by artificial explosions. They record the waves as functions of the time using seismometers located at different stations on the earth’s surface. Even without any earthquake or expl...
