Overtopping devices are long structures that use wave velocity to fill a reservoir to a greater water level than the surrounding ocean.
22.
The approximate expressions for the wave velocities are simple enough to be physically interpreted, and sufficiently accurate for most geophysical applications.
23.
The inversion results in acoustic impedance ( AI ), which is the product of rock density and p-wave velocity.
24.
They usually travel slightly faster than Rayleigh waves, about 90 % of the body wave velocity, and have the largest amplitude.
25.
His thesis was titled " The effect of stress on the longitudinal wave velocity of an ultrasonic pulse in concrete ".
26.
The speed of travel of this pulse wave ( pulse wave velocity ( PWV ) ) is related to the stiffness of the arteries.
27.
The goal of inverse theory is to determine the spatial distribution of some variable ( for example, density or seismic wave velocity ).
28.
This earthquake had an overall relatively slow rupture speed, although the speed was above the S-wave velocity in some fault segments.
29.
One limitation of elastography is that it is inherently linear when ultrasound wave velocity and the material properties do not change during the strain measurement.
30.
Their shear wave velocity reduction is on the order of-10 to-30 % and the compressional wave velocity reduction tends to be weaker.
