Envelope reconstruction of the 0S2 – free oscillation of the earth
نویسنده
چکیده
The earthquake in December 2004 caused free oscillations of the Earth. Vibrates the earth in the “football mode“ 0S2, splits the natural frequency due to rotation into five closely adjacent individual components. The sum of these spectral components in the frequency band near 309 μHz produces a beat that gives the overall amplitude envelope a characteristic, regular pattern. From the measured envelope the parameters frequency, amplitude, phase and damping of generating sinusoids can be reconstructed. Since the method is extremely sensitive to changes in frequency and phase, these quantities can be determined precisely. The results depend on the geographical location of the site. Further results are the half-life of the amplitude decrease and the resonator Q. It is shown that the interaction of the five individual frequencies can be interpreted as amplitude modulation, which requires a nonlinear process in the Earth's interior.

This work is a study of the Earths free oscillations considering a merge of solid and liquid model. At the turn of 19th century Geophysicists presented the theory of the free oscillations for a self-gravitating, isotropic and compressible sphere. Assuming a steel structure for an Earth size sphere, they predicted a period of oscillation of about 1 hour. About 50 years later, the free oscillat...
متن کاملDynamic Envelope and Control Shading Pattern to Visual Comfort of Office Building in Tehran
This work reviews the effect of parametric programming on visual performance, daylighting and shading in office buildings in Tehran-Iran and studies their influences that help not only to reduce the glare but also to promote useful daylight illuminance through promoting visual comfort. It starts by establishing a review of the effective parameters on visual comfort indices, glare indices, and d...
متن کاملIdentification of Aptamer-Binding Sites in Hepatitis C Virus Envelope Glycoprotein E2
Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) encodes two envelope glycoproteins, E1 and E2. Our previous work selected a specific aptamer ZE2, which could bind to E2 with high affinity, with a great potential for developing new molecular probes as an early diagnostic reagents or therapeutic drugs targeting HCV. In this study, the binding sites between E2 and aptamer ZE2 were further explored. E2 was truncated to 15...
متن کاملSurface reconstruction of detect contours for medical image registration purpose
Although, most of the abnormal structures of human brain do not alter the shape of outer envelope of brain (surface), some abnormalities can deform the surface extensively. However, this may be a major problem in a surface-based registration technique, since two nearly identical surfaces are required for surface fitting process. A type of verification known as the circularity check for th...
متن کاملAnalysing Normal Modes of the Earth from High-rate GNSS Time Series
Normal modes of the Earth, or Earth’s free oscillations, correspond to a global deformation of the Earth that vibrates at different frequencies, like a bell, after a strong excitation, usually an earthquake of magnitude greater than 6.5. Normal modes of the Earth were first described by Lord Kelvin (Kelvin, 1863) with a computation of the lowest fundamental spheroidal mode 0S2 frequency for a h...
