Crustal model of the Southern Central Andes derived from ambient seismic noise Rayleigh-wave tomography
(2018)
The distribution and the interconnection of magmatic bodies beneath volcanic arcs is key to asses volcanic hazard and eruptive processes taking place at convergent margins. We use ambient seismic noise Rayleigh-wave ...
On the existence of surface waves in an elastic half-space with impedance boundary conditions
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2012)
In this work, the problem of surface waves in an isotropic elastic half-space with impedance boundary conditions is investigated. It is assumed that the boundary is free of normal traction and the shear traction varies ...
Shear wave propagation in residual soil–rigid inclusion mixtures
(Elsevier Science Sa, 2019-02)
Residual and tropical soils are particulate materialswith a wide range of particle sizes. Usually these geomaterials have a fine particle matrix containing dispersed rigid inclusions that affect theirmechanical behavior. ...
The Up-Hole Seismic Test Together with the SPT: Description of the System and Method
(Brazilian Soc Soil Mechanics & Geotechnical Engineering, 2018-05-01)
A proper geotechnical site characterization has to identify the geometry of relatively homogeneous zones and define indices, strength and stiffness properties of the soils within these zones. The most widely used in situ ...
Elastic consequences of a single plastic event: Towards a realistic account of structural disorder and shear wave propagation in models of flowing amorphous solids
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2015-05)
Shear transformations (i.e., localized rearrangements of particles resulting in the shear deformation of a small region of the sample) are the building blocks of mesoscale models for the flow of disordered solids. In order ...
Does epimuscular myofascial force transmission occur between the human quadriceps muscles in vivo during passive stretching?
(Elsevier Ltd, 2019)
© 2018 Elsevier LtdThis study sought to examine the shear modulus (i.e., an force index) of three quadriceps muscles [i.e., vastus medialis (VM), vastus lateralis (VL), and rectus femoris (RF)] during passive stretching ...
