The amplitudes of P and S head waves in a full waveform acoustic log microseismogram are studied numerically as a function of borehole and formation parameters. The technique used is contour integration around the respective branch cuts in the complex wavenumber plane (Tsang and Rader. 1979). The results showed that the P wave amplitUde depends on the Poisson's ratio, but the S wave amplitude d...

by using bifurcation theory of planar ordinary differential equations all different bounded travelling wave solutions of the generalized zakharov equation are classified in different parametric regions . in each of these parametric regions the exact explicit parametric representation of all solitary , kink (anti kink) and periodic wave solutions as well as their numerical simulation and thei...

A two-dimensional finite element numerical model has been developed to simulate tide and wave characteristics for Maharashtra coastal region, India. The region was divided into four zones based on water depth and the Chezy’s friction coefficient values for each zone were determined. It was noticed that as the water depth decreases the values of friction coefficient increases. Results are valida...

The present study is concerned with the variational principle and plane wave propagation in double porous thermoelastic infinite medium. Lord-Shulman theory [2] of thermoelasticity with one relaxation time has been used to investigate the problem. It is found that for two dimensional model, there exists four coupled longitudinal waves namely longitudinal wave (P), longitudinal thermal wave (T),...

An effective spin-orbit coupling can be generated in a cold atom system by engineering atom-light interactions. In this Letter we study spin-1/2 and spin-1 Bose-Einstein condensates with Rashba spin-orbit coupling, and find that the condensate wave function will develop nontrivial structures. From numerical simulation we have identified two different phases. In one phase the ground state is a s...

Traveling wavetrains in generalized two–species predator–prey models and two– component reaction–diffusion equations are considered. The stability of the fixed points of the traveling wave ODEs (in the usual ”spatial” variable) is considered. For general functional forms of the nonlinear prey birthrate/prey deathrate or reaction terms, a Hopf bifurcation is shown to occur at two different criti...

The anisotropy of temperature is studied here in a strong two-dimensional shock wave, simulated with conventional molecular dynamics. Several forms of the kinetic temperature are considered, corresponding to different choices for the local instantaneous stream velocity. A local particle-based definition omitting any "self"-contribution to the stream velocity gives the best results. The configur...
