Shock waves in disordered media.
We experimentally investigate the interplay between spatial shock waves and the degree of disorder during nonlinear optical propagation in a thermal defocusing medium. We characterize the way the shock point is affected by the amount of disorder and scales with wave amplitude. Evidence for the existence of a phase diagram in terms of nonlinearity and amount of randomness is reported. The result...
متن کاملPlane waves in anisotropic viscoelastic media
Two concepts of plane waves in anisotropic viscoelastic media are studied. One of these concepts allows for the use of methods based on the theory of complete Bernstein functions. This allows for a deeper study of frequency-domain asymptotics of the attenuation function and timedomain regularity at the wavefronts. A relation between the direction of the energy flux density and the attenuation v...
متن کاملWaves in stratified viscoelastic media with microstructure
An extension of the O'Doherty and Anstey theory [R. F. O'Doherty and N. A. Anstey, Geophys. Prosp. 19, 430458 (1971)] is derived for waves in finely layered, anisotropic, viscoelastic media. Multiple scattering effects cause the direct wave to be delayed and broadened, subject to a deterministic integrodifferential delay equation. The kernel depends upon time-domain autocorrelations of reflecti...
متن کاملScattering of elastic waves in damaged media.
The scattering of elastic waves in a medium with damage from microcracking is discussed. The influence of damage from penny-shaped microcracks within a homogeneous medium is considered. The microcracks are assumed to be randomly oriented and uniformly distributed. Explicit expressions are derived for the attenuation of longitudinal and shear elastic waves in terms of the damage parameter and th...
متن کاملPropagation of Elastic Waves in Prestressed Media
3D solutions of the dynamical equations in the presence of external forces are derived for a homogeneous, prestressed medium. 2D plane waves solutions are obtained from general solutions and show that there exist two types of plane waves, namely, quasi-P waves and quasi-SV waves. Expressions for slowness surfaces and apparent velocities for these waves are derived analytically as well as numeri...
