Dynamics and wave propagation in dilatant granular materials

An Efficient Approach for Seismoacoustic Scattering Simulation Based on Boundary Element Method

“…where h = 1 km and the elastic constant and the mass density are 1 km/s and 1 g/cm 3 , respectively. Fig.…”

“…The material parameters are 1 km/s and 1 g/cm 3 for the top layer, and 1.5 km/s and 1 g/cm 3 for the bottom layer, respectively.…”

“…To study the site effect of strong ground motion, a stratified structure with irregular interfaces is an eligible model for simulating seismic wave propagation. For the study of seismic waves propagating through a sediment filled basin in the case of rigid grains, the work [3][4] is noteworthy, where a model was proposed to reproduct a nonlinear effect experimentally observed for real seismic waves: site amplification decreases as the amplitude of the incident wave increases.…”

Scaling and hierarchies of wave motion in solids

“…The hierarchies in the presence of nonlinearities are demonstrated in Sect. 4. Further the influence of other fields is studied.…”

“…Note that every operator has its own velocity a i . Recently the interest to hierarchies of waves has been increased because the problems of wave motion in fluidized bed [2], in bubbly liquids [3], in granular media [4], in oceans [5], in microstructured solids [6], in thermoelasticity [7], etc.…”
