The classical problem of the incidence of spherical waves on a plane boundary has been reformulated from the computational point of view by providing a high frequency approximation to the exact solution applicable to any seismic body wave, regardless of the number of conversions or reflections from the bottoming interface. In our final expressions the ray amplitude of the interference reflected-head wave is cast in terms of a Weber function, the numerical values of which can be conveniently stored on a computer disk file and retrieved via direct access during an actual run. Our formulation also accounts for the increase of energy carried by multiple head waves arising during multiple reflections of the reflected wave from the bottoming interface. In this form our high frequency expression for the ray amplitude of the interference reflected-head wave can represent a complementary technique to asymptotic ray theory in the vicinity of critical regions where the latter cannot be used. Since numerical tests indicate that our method produces results very close to those obtained by the numerical integration of the exact solution, its combination with asymptotic ray theory yields a powerful technique for the speedy computation of synthetic seismograms for plane homogeneous layers.

Abstract: Cloud computing has experienced significant growth in the recent years owing to the various advantages it provides such as 24/7 availability, quick provisioning of resources, easy scalability to name a few. Virtualization is the backbone of cloud computing. Virtual Machines (VMs) are created and executed by a software called Virtual Machine Monitor (VMM) or the hypervisor. It separates compute environments from the actual physical infrastructure. A disk image file representing a single virtual machine is created on the hypervisor’s file system. In this paper, we analysed the runtime performance of multiple different disk image file formats. The analysis comprises of four different parameters of performance namely- bandwidth, latency, input-output operations performed per second (IOPS) and power consumption. The impact of the hypervisor’s block and file sizes is also analysed for the different file formats. The paper aims to act as a reference for the reader in choosing the most appropriate disk file image format for their use case based on the performance comparisons made between different disk image file formats on two different hypervisors – KVM and VirtualBox. Keywords: Virtualization, Virtual disk formats, Cloud computing, fio, KVM, virt-manager, powerstat, VirtualBox.

In this paper, mechanical aspects of magnetic recording technology and nonimpact printing are discussed. In the recording area, theoretical and experimental aspects of air bearing theory, head/disk dynamics, and head/disk tribology are studied. Flutter of rotating disks is investigated, the flow field between rotating disks is described, and nonrepeatable run-out of disk file spindles is studied. Furthermore, the head/disk interface for flexible media is discussed and dimensional stability of flexible substrate is examined. In the printing area, experimental and theoretical investigations using continuous and drop-on-demand fluid jets are presented, and numerical calculations of the drop formation process in drop-on-demand fluid jets are described.
