Estimation of S-Wave Velocity Structure in Fukui Plain from Microtremor Array Measurements

determination of s-wave structure via refraction microtremor technique in urban area: a case study

geological conditions of tabriz, a growing city in nw-iran, are strongly influenced by north tabriz fault (ntf). north tabriz fault is a major seismogenic fault in nw-iran. so, for a correct seismic microzonation, shear wave velocity (vs) structure in different part of city should be determined. but urban conditions, such as ambient noise due to cultural activity, restrict the general applicati...

Validation of Distensibility Measurements from MRI-based Pulse Wave Velocity

Introduction: The use of Fourier-velocity-encoding(FVE) M-mode MRI to measure pulse wave velocity (PWV) in arteries has great potential in determining vessel health as PWV provides an indirect measure of distensibility [1]. Previous reports have shown compelling results indicating the utility of this method in vivo. However, the actual values of arterial compliance in vivo are generally unknown...

importance of mode detection in ambient noise array application for shear wave velocity profile determination

in this paper we are going to show the importance of mode identification in microtremor array analysis. the idea come from four concentric ambient noise array recordings with aperture 100 to 1000 meters, performed in southern urban area of tehran near the shrine of imam khomeini. these measurements were part of a comprehensive research project with the aim of determination of deep shear wave ve...
