Analysis of two-dimensional Rayleigh wave scattering pattern by a surface defect is studied through modified boundary element method. BEM proposed in this paper has special treatment at each end of boundary which should have the Rayleigh wave go away without any generation of virtual reflections. It is shown that treatment for truncated boundary which is used to model two-dimensional Rayleigh waves' behavior in an elastic half-space is successfully implemented. To check numerical results' accuracy, time domain IFFT signal of the displacements is presented. Improvement on getting rid of unwanted influence of truncated boundary induced by 2-D Rayleigh waves on a flat surface of an elastic half-infinite medium is shown. As a final goal, the numerical results of Rayleigh wave scattering trend are plotted and they are compared with theoretical curves to prove its accuracy.

Love wave and Rayleigh wave are the major elastic waves belonging to the category of the surface wave. The fact that Love wave is not contaminated by P-wave which makes Love wave superior to Rayleigh wave and other body waves. Therefore, the information that Love wave carries is more distinct and clearer than the information of Rayleigh wave. Based on theoretical research, the joint inversion analysis which is used both Love wave dispersion information and Rayleigh wave dispersion information was proposed. Purpose of the joint inversion analysis is to improve accuracy and convergency of inversion results utilizing that frequency contribution of each wave is different. This analysis technique is consisted of the forward modeling using transfer matrix, the sensitivity matrix determined to the ground system and DLSS(Damped Least Square Solution) as a inversion technique. The application of this analysis was examined through the field test.

소규모 천부 불균질대가 레일리파의 전파 및 분산특성에 미치는 영향에 대해 알아보기 위해 반무한 균질 매질과 2층 층서구조상의 소규모 천부 불균질대를 상정하고 이 불균질대의 심도, 규모 등을 변화시키면서 레일리파의 전파양상과 분산특성에 대해 고찰하였다. 불균질대의 크기가 최소파장을 기준으로 한파장 이상의 경우 레일리파의 분산 현상이 확인되었으며 이러한 현상은 불균질대의 크기가 클수록 커지며 심도가 깊어질수록 작아지고 심도와 수직적 크기변화보다는 수평적 크기변화에 더 민감한 것을 확인하였다. 분산으로 인한 위상속도의 변화 양상은 불균질대의 크기가 일정정도 이하일 경우에는 탄성파 기록상에서는 확인하기 어려우나 분산된 레일리파의 반사 및 투과 이벤트와 그로 인한 진폭변화를 통해 불균질대 존재 여부를 확인하는 지시자로 사용될 수 있을 것으로 판단되며 이런 결과는 소규모 불균질대나 공동탐지를 위한 현장탐사나 새로운 해석방법 개발에 있어 한 지침을 제공할 것으로 기대된다.

Surface wave techniques are widely used as non-invasive method for geotechnical site characterization. Field surface wave data are collected and analyzed using different processing techniques to generate the dispersion curves, which are further used to extract the shear wave velocity profile by inverse problem solution. Characteristics of a dispersion curve depend on the subsurface layering information of a vertically heterogeneous medium. Sometimes soft layer can be found between two stiff layers in the vertically heterogeneous media, and it can affect the wave propagation dramatically. Now most of the surface wave techniques use the fundamental mode Rayleigh wave propagation during the inversion, but this may not be the actual scenario when a soft layer is present in a vertically layered medium. This paper presents a detailed and comprehensive study using finite element method to examine the effect of soft layers which sometimes get trapped between two high velocity layers. Determination of the presence of a soft layer is quite important for proper mechanical characterization of a soil deposit. Present analysis shows that the thickness and position of the trapped soft layer highly influence the dispersion of Rayleigh waves while the higher modes also contribute in the resulting wave propagation.

It is recently well recognized that the technique for the one-sided stress wave velocity measurement in structural materials provides measurement in structural materials provides valuable information on the state of the material such as quality, uniformity, location of cracked or damaged area. This technique is especially effective to measure velocities of longitudinal and Rayleigh waves when access to only one surface of structure is possible. However, one of problems for one-sided stress wave velocity measurement is to get consistent and reliable source for the generation of elastic wave. In this study, the laser based surface elastic wave was used to provide consistent and reliable source for the generation of elastic wave into the materials. The velocities of creeping wave and Rayleigh wave in materials were measured by the one-sided technique using laser based surface elastic wave. These wave velocities were compared with bulk wave velocities such as longitudinal wave and shear wave velocities to certify accuracy of measurement. In addition, the mechanical properties such as poisson's ratio and specific modulus(E/p) were calculated with the velocities of surface elastic waves.

This paper investigated the dispersion characteristics of horizontal surface waves as means to apply conversional SASW techniques. To verify this proposal, 3D finite element analysis and Transfer matrix solution were performed. SH wave(Love waves) has the some advantages in comparison with Rayleigh wave. Representatively, Love wave has a characteristics not affected by compression wave. These characteristics have the robust applicability for the surface wave investigation techniques. In this study, for the purpose of employing Love wave in the SASW method, the dispersion characteristics of the Love wave was extensively investigated by the theoretical and numerical approaches. The 3-D finite element and transfer matrix analyses for the half space and two-layer systems were performed to determine the phase velocities from Love wave as well as from both the vertical and the horizontal components of Rayleigh wave. Preliminary, numerical simulations and theoretical solutions indicated that the dispersion characteristics of horizontal surface wave(Love waves) can be sufficiently sensitive and appliable to SASW techniques.

In this paper, we proposed a new type's PZT actuator using surface acoustic wave. This actuator uses Rayleigh wave as an operational traveling wave. For the development of the actuator, each components of surface acoustic wave motor like PZT substrate, slider and IDT was studied theoretically and fabricated. For the measurement of transfer function of PZT substrate and operation of surface acoustic wave motor, network analyzer and 13.56MHz RF generator were used. Also the model which expresses the driving characteristic best was suggested and simulation was executed for the suggested model. And the future research works for improvement of SAW actuator was suggested.

Recently, surface-wave methods have been widely used for site investigation due to economic advantage and improved reliability. Specially, the Spectral-Analysis-of-Surface-Wave (SASW) method has been used to evaluate soil properties in geotechnical engineering. In determination of subgrade stiffness by SASW measurements, only the vertical Rayleigh waves have been used. This study proposed a framework to determine shear-wave velocity profiles by using vertical and horizontal Rayleigh waves and Love wave all together. In addition, the Common-Array-Profiling(CAP) SASW method was employed, which subgrade stiffness of profile the local material under two fixed receivers. The procedure proposed in this study was verified by comparing the shear-wave velocity profiles with the shear-wave velocity profiles of downhole testing at two geotechnical sites.

레일레이파와 러브파는 탄성파 중에서 표면파에 속하는 것으로, 매우 중요한 표면파로 인식되고 있다. 러브파의 파동 전파시 매질내에 발생되는 변형은 SH파와 같은 전단형태이므로, 러브파는 P-파에 의해 교란되지 않는 특성이 있다. 이러한 특성으로 인하여 러브파가 레일레이파나 다른 체적파보다 더 유용한 탄성파로 인식되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 표면파를 활용하는 대표적 실험기법인 SASW 기법에서 러브파를 도입하고자 하는 목적으루 이론적, 수치해석적, 실험적 방법으로 러브파의 위상속도 분산 특성을 연구하였다. 특히, 러브파의 수평성분과 레일레이파의 수직 수평 성분의 특성을 연구하기 위하여, 반무한 지반, 2층 구조의 지반에 대하여 2차원,3차원 유한요소 해석을 수행하였다. 또한, 수치해석으로 획득한 러브파와 레일레이파에 대한 결과를 확인하기 위하여 일반 지반에서 현장실험을 수행하였다. 이와 같은 수치해석과 현장실험을 통하여 러브파의 위상속도 분산특성이 SASW 기법의 정확성과 신뢰성을 더욱 향상시키기 위한 추가 자료로 매우 유용할 것이라는 것을 확인하였다.

Rayleigh waves which has more than 70% of the total seismic energy is the principal component of ground roll. Frequency component of a surface wave has a different propagation velocity, that is, phase velocity, which results in a different wavelength called dispersion. Rayleigh wave is one of the most common ways to use the dispersive properties of surface waves. MASW is a seismic method to evaluate shear-wave velocity information of the ground.
