Modeling the fiber addition influence on the small strain shear modulus of sand
(Springer, 2017-07)
The mechanical behavior of fiber reinforced soils has been extensively studied in the last decades. Previous studies have shown that inclusion of fibers increases the shear strength of the reinforced soil. However, the ...
Retrieving shallow shear-wave velocity profiles from 2D seismic-reflection data with severely aliased surface waves
(Elsevier Science, 2019-02)
The inversion of surface-wave phase-velocity dispersion curves provides a reliable method to derive near-surface shear-wave velocity profiles. In this work, we invert phase-velocity dispersion curves estimated from 2D ...
Weathering effect on the small strains elastic properties of a residual soil
(Springer, 2019-04)
Residual soils in the northeast Argentina, southeast Paraguay and central and southern Brazil are the result of the weathering of a near-surface basalt formation. To assess the effect of weathering on the small and large ...
LATERAL SHEAR INTERFEROMETRY

Shear wave filtering in naturally-occurring Bouligand structures.
(ELSEVIER SCI LTDUniversidad EAFIT. Departamento de Ingeniería Mecánica, 2015-09-01)
Wave propagation was investigated in the Bouligand-like structure from within the dactyl club of the stomatopod, a crustacean that is known to smash their heavily shelled preys with high accelerations. We incorporate the ...
Analytic approximation to the scattering of antiplane shear waves by free surfaces of arbitrary shape via superposition of incident, reflected and diffracted rays
(OXFORD UNIV PRESSUniversidad EAFIT. Departamento de Ingeniería Mecánica, 2013-03-01)
The scattering induced by surface topographies of arbitrary shapes, submitted to horizontally polarized shear waves (SH) is studied analytically. In particular, we propose an analysis technique based on a representation ...
