Seismic exploration is one of the main geophysical methods to extract quantitative inferences about the Earth’s interior at different scales from the recording of seismic waves near the surface. Main applications are civil engineering for cavity detection and landslide characterization, site effect modelling for seismic hazard, CO2 sequestration and nuclearwaste storage, oil and gas exploration...

in this article, we study the new streamline diffusion finite element for treating the linear second order hyperbolic initial-boundary value problem. we prove a posteriori $ l^2(l^2)$ and error estimates for this method under minimal regularity hypothesis. test problem of an application of the wave equation in the laser is presented to verify the efficiency and accuracy of the method.

In recent years reflectarray antennas have received considerable attention due to their unique capabilities. However, due to their large size, analyzing the performance of these antennas using traditional full wave finite-difference and finite-element techniques requires considerable computational resources. In this paper, we present an efficient method to accurately analyze these class of ante...

In this paper we investigate the properties and linear stability of travelling premixed combustion waves and the formation of pulsating combustion waves in a model with two-step chain-branching reaction mechanism. These calculations are undertaken in the adiabatic limit, in one spatial dimension and for the case of arbitrary Lewis numbers for fuel and radicals. It is shown that the Lewis number...

The weather forecast by satellite data is a good guideline for assessment of voyage planning route in order to have safe and economic voyage for shipping. ISO15016, "Guidelines for the assessment of speed and performance by analysis of speed trial data", has been developed by the working group ISO/TC 8/SC 9/WG 2. This paper presents the effects of wave speed & direction, wind speed and directio...

The Wave-based Finite Element Method or WFEM is applied to in-vacuo cylindrical shells to studystructure-borne wave interaction with bulkhead and keel-type plate attachments. The frequency rangeconsidered is from one to ten times the shell "ring" frequency. The goal is to better understand theshell-plate interaction, which plays an important role in the acoustic scattering and r...

In this study, torsional wave propagation is investigated in a rod that are made of one and two dimensional functionally graded material. Firstly, the governing equations of the wave propagation in the functionally graded cylinder derived in polar coordinate. Secondly, finite difference method is used to discretize the equations. The Von Neumann stability approach is used to obtain the time ste...
