In research into various hydrophysical and hydroacoustic wave processes, it is extremely important to know the regularities of their propagation in the sea at decreasing depths, especially in the shelf areas, and also to know the regularities of their transformation into seismoacoustic processes in the earth crust. In the course of the processing and analysis of the experimental data of our complex experiment, in this paper we investigate these regularities. In our experiment, we used a low-frequency hydroacoustic transmitter that generated harmonic oscillations at the frequency of 22 Hz and received hydroacoustic systems with a shore laser strainmeter. It was established that hydroacoustic waves, propagating at the shelf of decreasing depth, transform into seismoacoustic waves at the depth of the sea equal to or less than a half-length of the hydroacoustic wave. A comparison of the results of this work with earlier-obtained results allows us to state that such regularities should be inherent to all hydrophysical and hydroacoustic processes.

При исследовании различных гидрофизических и гидроакустических волновых процессов крайне важно знать закономерности их распространения в море убывающей глубины, особенно в шельфовых областях, а также закономерности их трансформации в сейсмоакустические процессы земной коры. В ходе обработки и анализа экспериментальных данных комплексного эксперимента в данной статье исследуются эти закономерности. В эксперименте использовались низкочастотный гидроакустический излучатель, генерирующий гармонические колебания на частоте 22 Гц, приемные гидроакустические системы и береговой лазерный деформограф. Установлено, что гидроакустические волны, распространяющиеся по шельфу убывающей глубины, трансформируются в сейсмоакустические волны при глубинах моря, равных или меньше половины гидроакустической длины волны. Сравнение результатов данной статьи с ранее полученными результатами позволило утверждать, что такие закономерности должны быть присущи всем гидрофизическим и гидроакустическим процессам. When studying the various hydrophysical and hydroacoustic wave processes, it is extremely important to know the regularities of their propagation in the sea of decreasing depth, especially in the shelf areas, as well as the regularities of their transformation into seismoacoustic processes of the earth’s crust. In the course of processing and analyzing the experimental data of the complex experiment, these regularities are investigated in this article. The experiment used a low- frequency hydroacoustic emitter generating harmonic oscillations at a frequency of 22 Hz, receiving hydroacoustic systems and a coastal laser strainmeter. It has been established that hydroacoustic waves propagating along a shelf of decreasing depth are transformed into seismoacoustic waves at sea depths equal to less than half of the hydroacoustic wavelength. Comparison of the results of this article with previously obtained results made it possible to assert that such regularities should be inherent in all hydrophysical and hydroacoustic processes.

The spatial problem of internal explosive loading of an elastoplastic cylindrical container filled with water in Eulerian - Lagrangian variables using multigrid algorithms is considered. A defining system of three-dimensional equations of the dynamics of gas, fluid, and elastoplastic medium is presented. For numerical modeling, a modification of S.K. Godunov scheme of the increased accuracy for both detonation products and liquids, and elastoplastic container is used. At the moving contact boundaries “detonation products - liquid”, “liquid - deformable body”, the exact solution of the Riemann's problem is used. A time dependent model is used to describe the propagation of steady-state detonation wave through an explosive from an initiation region. In both cases, the initiation of detonation occurs at the center of the charge. Two problems have been solved: the first task for the aisymmetric position of the charge, the second for the charge shifted relative to the axis of symmetry. In the first task, the processes are two-dimensional axisymmetric in nature, in the second task, the processes are essentially three-dimensional. A comparison is made of the results of calculations of the first problem using a three-dimensional method with a solution using a previously developed two-dimensional axisymmetric method and experimental data. Good agreement is observed between the numerical results for the maximum velocities and circumferential strains obtained by various methods and experimental data. There is good agreement between the numerical results obtained by various methods and the known experimental data. Comparison of the results of solving the first and second problems shows a significant effect of the position of the charge on the wave processes in the liquid, the processes of loading the container and its elastoplastic deformation. The dynamic behavior of a gas bubble with detonation products is analyzed. A significant deviation of the bubble shape from the spherical one, caused by the action of shock waves reflected from the structure, is shown. Comparison of the results of solving the first and second problems showed a significant effect of the charge position on wave processes in a liquid, the processes of loading a container and its elastoplastic deformation. In particular, in the second problem, shock waves of higher amplitude are observed in the liquid when reflected from the walls of the container.

Photography can be used for pleasure and art but can also be used in many disciplines of science, because it captures the details of the moment and can serve as a proving tool due to the information it preserves. During the period of the Apollo program (1969 to 1972), the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) successfully landed humans on the Moon and showed hundreds of photos to the world presenting the travel and landings. This paper uses computer simulations and geometry to examine the authenticity of one such photo, namely Apollo 17 photo GPN-2000-00113. In addition, a novel approach is employed by creating an experimental scene to illustrate details and provide measurements. The crucial factors on which the geometrical analysis relies are locked in the photograph and are: (a) the apparent position of the Earth relative to the illustrated flag and (b) the point to which the shadow of the astronaut taking the photo reaches, in relation to the flagpole. The analysis and experimental data show geometrical and time mismatches, proving that the photo is a composite.

The reflectivity, loss function, refractive index, extinction coefficient and dielectric function of the LaNi5and LaNi4.5Sn0.5intermetallic compounds are investigated through the plane-wave pseudo-potential method based on the density functional theory. The effects of Sn impurity are discussed and some interesting features are found in the low frequency region. Some important optical properties such as static dielectric constant and static refractive index are obtained. The equation [n (0)]2=ε1(0)is satisfied according to our calculation, which indicates that our results are correct and reasonable. Nevertheless, the calculated results need to be testified in the future due to the lack of experimental data.

Meshing of domain in CFD is an important step to ensure accuracy of the solution. In the past, hexahedral or tetrahedral mesh systems were commonly used, and both have their merits and demerits. For large and complex geometry, polyhedral is another option but its accuracy is claimed to be lacking. In this paper, the use of polyhedral mesh system by past researchers are reviewed. Evaluation on the application of polyhedral mesh system for the study of the vortex formation with a simple single pump sump model is made. Validation was made through the comparison of the results from hexahedral, tetrahedral and polyhedral mesh sizes and the experimental data from published data. The polyhedral mesh system was found to perform satisfactorily and was able to match the results from the hexahedral mesh system as well as the experimental data.

<p>The foreshock is a region filled with a turbulent plasma located upstream the Earth’s bow shock where interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) lines are connected to the bow shock surface. In this region, ultra-low frequency (ULF) waves are generated due to the interaction of the solar wind plasma with particles reflected from the bow shock back into the solar wind. It is assumed that excited waves grow and they are convected through the solar wind/foreshock, thus the inner spacecraft (close to the bow shock) would observe larger wave amplitudes than the outer (far from the bow shock) spacecraft. The paper presents a statistical analysis of excited ULF fluctuations observed simultaneously by two closely separated THEMIS spacecraft orbiting the Moon under a nearly radial IMF. We found that ULF fluctuations (in the plasma rest frame) can be characterized as a mixture of transverse and compressional modes with different properties at both locations. We discuss the growth and/or damping of ULF waves during their propagation.</p>

Electrical measurements were made on the surface of the earth with low frequency commutated current using nineteen separate frequencies and six electrode separations. Analysis of the data indicates that there is an effect of appreciable magnitude attributable to an interface 6000 feet below the surface.

The present paper illustrates an evaluation method developed by the authors to quantify the index of motion sickness incidence (MSI) in railways motion conditions. This index is formerly defined in literature to quantify diseases coming from low frequency motions (kinetosis). The proposed method, suggested as alternative to the only one existing in reference norm, involves PCT index, well known in railways context, and weighting curves for accelerometric signals, which are also specified in railways regulations. The approach of the method, consistent with the theoretical model, developed by the authors themselves in previous works, allows to obtain MSI index versus time and/or track progressive distance. The model is validated through comparison with experimental data available in literature and with measures recorded and obtained on regular trains during tests performed in Slovenia (EU).
