Geology 5640/6640 Introduction to Seismology 2 Feb 2015 © A.R. Lowry 2015 Read for Wed 4 Feb: S&W (§2.4); Last time: The Wave Equation! The seismic wave equation derives from the divergence ( dilatational strain  ) and curl ( shear strain) of the equations of motion: P-wave equation : S-wave equation : in which  and  are the propagation velocities : Elastic properties vary much more than density; Velocity is sensitive to rock chemistry, packing structure, porosity & fluid type, pressure and temperature.…

So now we have our expressions for the wave equation in terms of displacements: Question is, how do we solve these? Solution is simplified by expressing displacements u in terms of displacement potentials. Helmholtz’ decomposition theorem holds that any vector field u can be expressed in terms of a vector potential  and a scalar potential  as: In our application,  is a scalar displacement potential associated with the P-wave, and  is a vector displacement potential associated with the S-wave.

It’s first worth noting a pair of useful vector identities : Then, if we substitute our potentials into our P-wave equation: Rearranging: And hence:

Similarly, substituting potentials into the S-wave equation: Here we take advantage of another vector identity: Rearranging: And hence:

So what’s the point of this? We want to find some solution, e.g. for P-wave displacement potential, that allows for separation of variables : The eigenfunctions for a partial differential equation of this form (i.e., functions which, if plugged into the equation, will yield solutions of similar form) are: (called the “d’Alembert solution”). Here, i is the imaginary number A is amplitude  is angular frequency 2  /T (& T is time period) k is spatial wavenumber 2  / (& is wavelength)

So let’s plug into and see what we get after differentiating: Similarly,

Dividing both sides of the equation by we’re left with: as a solution to the P-wave equation! Here it’s useful to recall that k is a vector, and so it has a magnitude and a direction: This is called the wavenumber vector or wave vector, and it describes the direction and (inverse) spatial wavelength of a propagating plane wave. Noting that  = 2  f, you may recognize this as  = f ! x3x3 x2x2 x1x1 k1k1 k2k2 k3k3 k

Hence we can write our general solution to the P-wave equation as Note that here we’ve defined a vector property, which we will call slowness, as: Because the forms of the equations are very similar, we can derive similar solutions for the S-wave equation!

Harmonic Wave Motion: Let’s consider a harmonic wave with angular frequency , amplitude a, and phase  = x/c (where x is position & c is velocity). We can express this as: f(t) = a cos(  t +  ). We can rewrite this using a trig identity: a cos(  t +  ) = a cos  cos(  t) + a sin  sin(  t) = a 1 cos(  t) + a 2 sin(  t) Thus a wave with arbitrary phase can be expressed as a weighted sum of sin & cos functions! The phase  is given by:

Also note that. We can also express a harmonic wave as f(t) = Re {Ae –i  t }, where A has real and imaginary parts A = x + iy, and e can be expressed via Euler’s law such that f(t) = Re {A [cos(  t) – i sin(  t)]} = Re {(x + iy) (cos  t – isin  t)} = Re {x cos  t – i 2 y sin  t + i (y cos  t – x sin  t)} = x cos  t + y sin  t. This is the same as f(t) = a 1 cos(  t) + a 2 sin(  t) if a 1 = x = Re {A} & a 2 = y = Im {A} so the wave equation can be satisfied using either form. Other trig identities that are useful for translating:

And just in case it’s been a while since you saw this in an intro geo class, here’s the “Earthquakes & Volcanoes” (aka “Shake & Bake”) version from Bolt’s Earthquakes… Check out the solution to the wave equation!
