Nonlinear interaction of quasiharmonic longitudinal waves, which propagate in solid porous material, was investigated theoretically. It was shown that as a result of such interaction between low-frequency waves (vibration field) and high-frequency waves (ultrasound) an ultrasound wave of summarized frequency would be generated. This newly generated wave can be in a phase-group synchronism with the vibration field. Analytical analysis qualitatively agrees with experimental data of ultrasound generation through seismic load.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
