Seismic waves travel through the layers of Earth. They are caused by magma movement, massive landslides, volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, and artificial explosions that emit low-frequency acoustic energy. Their propagation velocity relies on the type of wave as well as the elasticity and density of ...
Electromagnetic waves (light, infrared, radio) can also be partially longitudinal, such as in waveguides. Mechanical waves can be both transverse and longitudinal, such seismic waves, water waves, waves on a string. There actually isn't that much of a profound difference between transverse and l...

Seismic Waves Describe what is meant by seismic waves (P waves and S waves). How the P waves and S waves pass through the Earth. Describe how seismic waves provide evidence about the internal structure of the Earth.
Waves can be classified into twokinds of waves:mechanical waves and electromagnetic waves. There are manytypes of waveswhich fall within the two main categories that are used for theclassification of waves. Someexamples of wavesareradio waves, microwaves,sound waves, andseismic waves. Radio waves ...
The propagation of seismic waves in porous rocks is associated with a small transient deformation of rock matrix and pore space which can cause electromagnetic fields of observable amplitude if the pores are saturated. Seismoelectric field measurements are expected to help localize permeable layers in ...
Seismic P-waves are the first and fastest waves in an earthquake.Wave Waves are one of the ways that the natural world transfers energy from one location to another. A wave is a disturbance, or transfer, of energy through a medium from one location to another location, without the matter ...
Waves are a propagation of a disturbance in a medium that transmits energy from one location to another. There are many different types of waves, including sound waves, surface waves, seismic waves and electromagnetic and light waves. There are two main ways in which the medium oscillates ...
Seismic waves are longitudinal (primary) or transverse (secondary) waves. We will be discussing longitudinal waves. Longitudinal waves transfer energy parallel to the medium through which that energy travels. A medium is any state of matter: solid, liquid, or gas. This motion, or particle ...
Seismic waves were generated at each geophone point with an inline offset of 3 m. The roll-along technique was applied and a nominal 48-fold CMP-coverage was achieved. Reflection seismic processing followed mainly the standard CMP-processing routines (deconvolution and filtering, CMP sorting, ...
