The late seismic coda may contain coherent information about the elastic response of Earth. We computed the correlations of the seismic codas of 101 distant earthquakes recorded at stations that were tens of kilometers apart. By stacking cross-correlation functions of codas, we found a low-frequency coherent part in the diffuse field. The extracted pulses have the polarization characteristics a...

Recently the authors have described the diffraction of horizontally polarized sound on periodically rough solid-liquid interfaces [Nico F. Declercq et al., IEEEUFFC 49(11), 1516-1521]. This has lead to the simulation of generated Love waves. This in combination with the theory of the diffraction of vertically polarized sound, where the generation of Scholte-Stoneley waves can be simulated, has ...

The paper studies the possibility of propagation of torsional surface waves in an elastic layer with void pores over an elastic medium with void pores using the mechanics of the medium as derived by Cowin and Nunziato. The velocity equation has been derived and the results have been discussed. The study reveals that there may be more than one torsional surface wave fronts and one Love wave fron...

A systematic approximation to the linear equations for small-amplitude surface waves in an elastic half space, interacting with a residually-stressed thin film of different material bonded to its plane boundary, is developed in powers of the film thickness, assuming the latter to be small compared to the wavelength of the disturbance. The theory is illustrated by calculating asymptotic expansio...

aim and background: considering to adverse consequences of infidelity on couples well-being and longevity of marital relationships, this study was conducted to investigate the relationship between love schemas and justifications for extramarital involvement and affairs in married women. method and materials: this was a descriptive-correlation study and the samples included 250 married women who...
