Seismic refraction — is a geophysical principle (see refraction) governed by Snell s Law. Used in the fields of engineering geology, geotechnical engineering and exploration geophysics, seismic refraction traverses (seismic lines) are performed using a seismograph(s) … Wikipedia
Seismic microzonation — map of Greater Bangkok prepared based on predominant period of site obtained from microtremor observations [1] Main article: Earthquake engineering Seismic microzonation is defined as the process … Wikipedia
Seismic hazard — refers to the study of expected earthquake ground motions at the earth s surface, and its likely effects on existing natural conditions and man made structures for public safety considerations; the results of such studies are published as seismic … Wikipedia
Seismic wave — Seismic waves are waves that travel through the Earth, most often as the result of a tectonic earthquake, sometimes from an explosion. Seismic waves are also continually excited by the pounding of ocean waves and the wind. Seismic waves are… … Wikipedia
Seismic tomography — is a methodology for estimating the earth s properties. In the seismology community, seismic tomography is just a part of seismic imaging, and usually has a more specific purpose to estimate properties such as propagating velocities of… … Wikipedia
seismic wave — Vibration generated by an earthquake, explosion, or similar phenomenon and propagated within the Earth or along its surface. Earthquakes generate two principal types of waves: body waves, which travel within the Earth, and surface waves, which… … Universalium
Converted-wave analysis — During seismic exploration, P waves (also known as primary or compressive waves) penetrate down into the earth. When a P wave hits an interface (e.g., solid liquid), it can reflect upwards as an S wave (also known as a secondary, shear or… … Wikipedia
S-wave — can also refer to the lowest energy electronic wavefunction in atomic physics; see atomic orbital. A type of seismic wave, the S wave, secondary wave, or shear wave, sometimes called an elastic S wave, is one of the two main types of elastic body … Wikipedia
Transverse wave — Transverse plane wave A light wave is an example of a transverse wave … Wikipedia
S-wave — noun A transverse, shear wave, such as that produced by an earthquake. Movement is transverse to the direction of propagation and is a body wave Syn: seismic wave … Wiktionary
P-wave — This article is on the type of seismic wave. For the term used in electrocardiography, see P wave (electrocardiography). P wave can also refer to a type of electronic wavefunction in atomic physics; see atomic orbital. Plane P wave … Wikipedia
