TLDR
In this article, the effects of soil properties on the shape, amplitude and duration of Rayleigh waves are shown from synthetic seismograms, and the comparison of surface wave inversion method with other techniques shows that the former leads to slightly underestimated velocity values.About:

Laura Socco,Claudio Strobbia +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the analysis of the dispersion characteristics of surface wave data is presented, with particular attention to reliability and resolution, and different approaches that are used to estimate and interpret dispersion properties are considered.

In situ measurement of damping ratio using surface waves
TL;DR: In this paper, the frequency-dependent surface wave attenuation coefficients are determined from measurements of seismic wave amplitudes at various offsets from a swept-sine source, and the shear damping ratio profile is calculated using a constrained inversion analysis.

Direct Inversion of Spatial Autocorrelation Curves with the Neighborhood Algorithm
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a direct inversion scheme for the observed autocorrelation curves to retrieve, in a single step, the shear-wave velocity profile (Vs ).

A simple method to calculate green's functions for elastic layered media
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the Green9s functions for an elastic layered medium can be expressed as a double integral over frequency and horizontal wavenumber, which can be exactly represented by a discrete summation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis of dispersive waves by wave field transformation
TL;DR: In this article, the dispersion curves for the mode overtones and fundamental are directly observed in the transformed wave field, where the data wave field is linearly transformed from the time-distance domain into the slowness-time intercept (p − τ) domain.

In situ measurements of shear‐wave velocity in sediments with higher‐mode rayleigh waves*
TL;DR: In this article, a seismic survey was carried out on a tidal flat in the Netherlands in order to determine shear-wave velocities in sediments by means of higher-mode Rayleigh waves.
Journal ArticleDOI
Array analysis of seismic surface waves: Limits and possibilities
TL;DR: The dispersion of higher modes of surface waves over a region covered by an array of stations can be measured by applying a frequency-wavenumber transform to segments of the signals in these stations, centered at a number of group-velocities as discussed by the authors.

Statistical analysis and interpretation of surface-wave anelastic attenuation data for the stable interior of North America
TL;DR: In this article, a stochastic form of the Backus-Gilbert inverse formalism was applied to a subset of these data to yield a Qβ model for the stable interior of North America.
