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 Biots 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. 相似文献
Lanczos and Ortiz placed the canonical polynomials (c.p.'s) in a central position in the Tau Method. In addition, Ortiz devised a recursive process for determining c.p.'s consisting of a generating formula and a complementary algorithm coupled to the formula. In this paper a) We extend the theory so as to include in the formalism also the ordinary linear differential operators with polynomial coefficients with negative height
where denotes the degree of . b) We establish a basic classification of the c.p.'s and their orders , as primary or derived, depending, respectively, on whether or such does not exist; and we state a classification of the indices , as generic , singular , and indefinite . Then a formula which gives the set of primary orders is proved. c) In the rather frequent case in which all c.p.'s are primary, we establish, for differential operators with any height , a recurrency formula which generates bases of the polynomial space and their multiple c.p.'s arising from distinct , , so that no complementary algorithmic construction is needed; the (primary) c.p.'s so produced are classified as generic or singular, depending on the index . d) We establish the general properties of the multiplicity relations of the primary c.p.'s and of their associated indices. It becomes clear that Ortiz's formula generates, for , the generic c.p.'s in terms of the singular and derived c.p.'s, while singular and derived c.p.'s and the multiples of distinct indices are constructed by the algorithm.

the sequence (snj))jN converges to sometnR then some subsequence of (
j) converges weakly to a measure with moments of all orders satisfyingsn()=tn for allnN0/k. Thisindeterminate method of moments and the continuity theorems in probability theory suggest a common generalization, dealing with a commutative semigroupS, with involution and a neutral element, and measures on the dual semigroupS* ofcharacters on S—hermitian multiplicative complex functions not identically zero. In this setting, a continuity theorem holds for measures on the set of bounded characters,(2) and an indeterminate method of moments whenS is finitely generated.(2) The latter result is generalized in the present paper to the case of arbitraryS. This leads to a generalization of Haviland's criterion for theK-moment problem, and to a continuity theorem for the so-called perfect semigroups. 相似文献
