The present investigation is to study the surface wave propagation at imperfect boundary between an isotropic thermoelastic without energy dissipation half-space and an isotropic elastic layer of finite thickness. The penetration depth of longitudinal, transverse, and thermal waves has been obtained. The secular equation for surface waves in compact form is derived after developing the mathemat...

The existing theory for wave propagation through a soil layer are not compatible with the real soil layers because in the theory the layers are flat and the sub-layers are parallel, while in real the soil layers are not flat and they may not be parallel. Thus, wave propagations through a corrugated interface are so important. In this paper, a two-dimensional SH-wave propagation through a corrug...

We consider the propagation of a diffusive wave in a scattering medium submitted to a homogeneous expansion. The light multiply scattered by a glass spheres sample is measured. We analyze the variations of the scattered light when the material and the optical wavelength are dilated. We experimentally show that an isotropic expansion of the material is equivalent to a contraction of the waveleng...

Two-dimensional nonlinear models are developed to account for abnormal surface ocean waves generation and propagation. These models are based on the KadomtsevPetviashvili equation, the 2D Benjamin-Ono equation and the 2D Gardner equation. Possible mechanisms of the waves formation suggested are the resonant interaction between semi-plane waves or waves with curved fronts or the transverse insta...

Wave motion in disordered Faraday waves is analysed in terms of oscillons or quasi-particles. The motion of these oscillons is measured using particle tracking tools and it is compared with the motion of fluid particles on the water surface. Both the real floating particles and the oscillons, representing the collective fluid motion, show Brownian-type dispersion exhibiting ballistic and diffus...

the current manuscript presents the validation of smoothed particle hydrodynamics (sph) techniques for wave generation by underwater explosion, utilizing the so-called dualsphysics numerical model. this numerical method is used to analyze generated waves which are initiated by man-made or natural explosions below free surface level of sea. in spite of the modeling limitations (e.g. absence of o...

atrial dissociation is characterized by different types of p waves captured in an electrocardiogram, usually seen in critically ill or post-cardiac transplantation patients. our case demonstrates a 55-year-old man, presenting with chest pain (unstable angina) in the emergency department with transient double-p waves; representing the phenomenon. our case did not have any of the suggested causes...
