In a recent article, we described a seismic inversion method for determining the crustal velocity and attenuation of basins in earthquake-prone regions. We formulated the problem as a constrained nonlinear least-squares optimization problem in which the constraints are the equations that describe the forward wave propagation. Here, we conduct a parametric study to investigate the influence of parameters such as the form of the regularization function, receiver density, preconditioning, noise level of the data, and the multilevel continuation technique on the cost and quality of the inversion. We use the same 2D Los Angeles example as in our earlier study. (C) 2010 Academic des sciences. Published by Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved.

Hydrodynamic Modeling of Dam-Reservoir Response during Earthquakes Aydın, İsmail (American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), 2011-08-03) A computational model is developed to analyze the hydrodynamic behavior of dam reservoirs during earthquakes. The mathematical model is based on the solution of two-dimensional (2D) Navier-Stokes equations in a vertical, semi-infinite domain truncated by a far-end boundary condition. A depth integrated continuity equation is used to track the deforming free-surface and ensure global mass conservation. A combination of Sommerfeld nonreflecting boundary and dissipation zone methods is implemented at the far e...
Flow transitions and flow localization in large-strain deformation of magnesium alloy Sagapuram, Dinakar; Efe, Mert; Trumble, Kevin P.; Chandrasekar, Srinivasan (Elsevier BV, 2016-04-06) Understanding transitions from homogeneous to localized flow, and mechanisms underlying flow localization, is of paramount importance for deformation processing of magnesium. In this study, a shear based deformation method is utilized for imposing large strains (similar to 1), under controllable strain rates (10-10(5)/s) and temperatures (80-300 degrees C), in order to examine flow patterns in a magnesium alloy. Based on microstructure characterization, deformation twinning is suggested to contribute to the...
Thermally stimulated currents in n-InS single crystals Hasanlı, Nızamı; Yuksek, NS (Elsevier BV, 2003-03-24) Thermally stimulated current measurements are carried out on as-grown n-InS single crystals in the temperature range of 10-125 K. Experimental evidence is found for four trapping centers present in InS. They are located at 20, 35, 60 and 130 meV. The trap parameters have been determined by various methods of analysis, and they agree well with each other.
Time domain Gauss-Newton seismic waveform inversion in elastic media Sheen, Dong-Hoon; Tuncay, Kağan; Baag, Chang-Eob; Ortoleva, Peter J. (Oxford University Press (OUP), 2006-12-01) We present a seismic waveform inversion methodology based on the Gauss-Newton method from pre-stack seismic data. The inversion employs a staggered-grid finite difference solution of the 2-D elastic wave equation in the time domain, allowing accurate simulation of all possible waves in elastic media. The partial derivatives for the Gauss-Newton method are obtained from the differential equation of the wave equation in terms of model parameters. The resulting wave equation and virtual sources from the recipr...
Silicene nanoribbons: Molecular-dynamics simulations Ince, Alper; Erkoç, Şakir (Elsevier BV, 2011-01-01) Structural properties of silicene nanoribbons have been investigated by performing classical molecular-dynamics simulations using atomistic many-body potential energy functions at low and room temperatures with finite and infinite lengths. It has been found that finite length models are more likely to form tubular structures at room temperature.
