    Description: We present the first application of a time reverse location method in a volcanic setting, for a family of long-period (LP) events recorded on Mt Etna. Results are compared with locations determined using a full moment tensor grid search inversion and cross-correlation method. From 2008 June 18 to July 3, 50 broad-band seismic stations were deployed on Mt Etna, Italy, in close proximity to the summit. Two families of LP events were detected with dominant spectral peaks around 0.9 Hz. The large number of stations close to the summit allowed us to locate all events in both families using a time reversal location method. The method involves taking the seismic signal, reversing it in time, and using it as a seismic source in a numerical seismic wave simulator where the reversed signals propagate through the numerical model, interfere constructively and destructively, and focus on the original source location. The source location is the computational cell with the largest displacement magnitude at the time of maximum energy current density inside the grid. Before we located the two LP families we first applied the method to two synthetic data sets and found a good fit between the time reverse location and true synthetic location for a known velocity model. The time reverse location results of the two families show a shallow seismic region close to the summit in agreement with the locations using a moment tensor full waveform inversion method and a cross-correlation location method.

    Description: We investigate in detail the crustal layering of the ‘Val di Chiana Basin’ (Northern Apennines, Tuscany, Italy) through receiver functions and seismic anisotropy with hexagonal symmetry. The teleseismic data set is recorded in correspondence of a typical foreland basin resulting by the progressive eastward retreat of a regional-scale subduction zone trapped between two continents. We study the azimuthal variations of the computed and binned receiver functions associated to a harmonic angular analysis to emphasize the presence of the dipping and the anisotropic structures. The resulting S-wave velocity model shows interesting and new results for this area that we discuss in a regional geodynamic contest contributing to the knowledge of the structure of the forearc of the subduction zone. A dipping interface (N192°E strike, 18° dip) has been revealed at about 1.5 km depth, that separates the basin sediments and flysch from the carbonates and evaporites. Moreover, we interpret the two upper-crust anisotropic layers (at about 6 and 17 km depth) as the Hercynian Phyllites and Micaschists, of the Metamorphic Tuscan Basement. At relatively shallow depths, the presence of these metamorphic rocks causes the seismic anisotropy in the upper crust. The presence of shallow anisotropic layers is a new and interesting feature, first revealed in the study area. Beneath the crust–mantle transition (Moho), located about 28 km depth, our analysis reveals a 7-km-thick anisotropic layer.

    Notes: Abstract Propagation of a transient SH-wave in a cylindrically anisotropic elastic solid is considered and an exact closed form solution for a special class of anisotropy is obtained. This is a case where a square root of the shear rigidity ratio is an integer. In this case we find an interesting wave pattern. However, the singularity at the wave front is of the same order as the one in the isotropic solid.

    Notes: Abstract When reverberations between heterogeneities or resonance scattering can be neglected but accumulated effects of forward scattering are strong, the Born approximation is not valid but the De Wolf approximation can be applied in such cases. In this paper, renormalized MFSB (multiple-forescattering single-backscattering) equations and the dual-domain expression for scalar, acoustic and elastic waves are derived by a unified approach. Two versions of the one-return method (using MFSB approximation) are given: One is the wide-angle dual-domain formulation (thin-slab approximation); the other is the screen approximation. In the screen approximation, which involves a small-angle approximation for the wave-medium interaction, it can be seen clearly that the forward scattered, or transmitted waves are mainly controlled by velocity perturbations; while the backscattered or reflected waves, by impedance perturbations. The validity of the method and the wide-angle capability of the dual-domain implementation are demonstrated by numerical examples. Reflection coefficients of a plane interface derived from numerical simulations by the wide-angle method match the theoretical curves well up to critical angles. For the reflections of a low-velocity slab, the agreement between theory and synthetics only starts to deteriorate for angles greater than 70°. The accuracy of the wide-angle version of the method could be further improved by optimizing the wave-number filtering for the forward propagation and shrinking the step length along the propagation direction.

    Description / Table of Contents: Sommario Si ricavano le equazioni di moto per i materiali granulari dilatanti da un principio variazionale Hamiltoniano di tipo locale nel caso conservativo. Si studia la propagazione delle onde non lineari in una regione di stato costante per mezzo di un approccio asintotico già rivelatosi utile nello studio della propagazione di onde nei liquidi con bolle e nelle miscele di fluidi. Quando si supponga che i granuli siano incomprimibili, si dimostra che il materiale si comporta come un continuo con microstruttura latente.
    Notes: Abstract The equations of motion for dilatant granular material are obtained from a Hamiltonian variational principle of local type in the conservative case. The propagation of nonlinear waves in a region with uniform state is studied by means of an asymptotic approach that has already appeared useful in an investigation on wave propagation in bubbly liquids and in fluid mixtures. When the grains are assumed to be incompressible, it is shown that the material behaves as a continuum with latent microstructure.

    Notes: Abstract In this paper, it is demonstrated how a direct stiffness method for wavepropagation in multilayered saturated poroelastic media, based on integraltransform techniques, can be modified to account for a small amount of gasin the pores. Unsaturated media with small gas fractions can be treatedusing Smeulders‘ extension of Biot‘s poroelastic theory. The effect of thepresence of gas bubbles on the fluid bulk modulus and the dispersioncharacteristics of a water-saturated sand of Mol is demonstrated. Thedirect stiffness method is illustrated with a numerical example wheretransient wave propagation in a dry, saturated and unsaturated halfspaceis considered.

    Notes: Abstract In this paper the generation of harmonic waves in an elastic magneticmaterial, which is a perfect conductor of electricity, isconsidered. It has been assumed that an infinite body is subjected tothe action of an initially constant magnetic fieldH = (H,0,0) and in the plane ax+by=0 acts a source ofdistortion. It has been shown that this source may produce bothtransverse and longitudinal waves and each of them consists of two parts,which propagate with different speeds. The amplitudes and speeds in dependence on theangle between the direction of wave propagation and the magnetic fieldintensity H have been discussed.

    Notes: Abstract Adopting the spectral approach, we derive the formulation of angular coherence and transverse coherence of transmission fluctuations. Our derivation and results provide new insight on transmission fluctuation analysis. A review of research work on fluctuation analysis using observations at large seismic arrays such as LASA and NORSAR-follows. We point out that the model of a single-layer Gaussian medium cannot explain the angular coherence of NORSAR data and a more general model of a non-Gaussian, multi-scale, vertically inhomogeneous random media is needed. The model of a two-layer power-law medium proposed by Flatté and Wu is among the simplest of such models.

    Notes: Abstract Correct representation of seismic waveforms propagating through the mantle from a 600 km deep earthquake is presented using graphic interpolation between synthetic seismograms computed across a grid of mantle depths and distances. All torsional normal modes with periods above 12 s are summed to create 72,846 seismograms at depths between the surface and the core-mantle boundary. The resulting time snapshots show the manner by which seismic shear energy propagates around the core away from the source.
