Abstract The paper describes the noise monitoring data acquired from the pilot project on the establishment of National Ambient Noise Monitoring Network (NANMN) across seven major cities in India for continuous noise monitoring throughout the year. The annual average Lday (06-22 h) and Lnight (22-06 h) values observed in year 2011-2014 for the 35 locations under study in which 14 locations are in commercial zone,5 in Industrial, 7 in residential and 9 in silence zones are described. The long-term noise monitoring shows that ambient noise levels have marginally increased for 29 sites (82.9%) since past four years. The present study is focused on evaluation and analysis of environmental noise pollution at 35 noise monitoring sites in seven major cities of India and shall be instrumental in planning for the noise abatement measures for controlling the noise pollution in these sites.

Abstract. Since 2000 the Institute of Methodologies for the Environmental Analysis (National Council of Research, Tito, Italy) installed a geophysical monitoring network able to detect geoelectric, geochemic and seismometric parameters in seismic areas of southern Italy. During this period a very large data-base of geophysical time series has been organized and it is actually available to assess robust statistical methodologies to identify geophysical anomalous patterns linked with local seismicity. To better understand the influence of rain and cultural noise on geoelectrical signals (Self Potential), during May 2004 we drilled in Tito station a 20 m-depth hole to measure the SP vertical component. The array is characterized by five Pb-PbCl2 electrodes put at different depths. The common electrode is fixed at 20 m. In this work we present some electrical anomalies probably correlated with local seismic activity on vertical dipoles recorded in Tito station.

<p>Ambient noise seismology has greatly reduced the cost of acquiring data for seismic monitoring and imaging by reducing the need for active sources. For applications requiring time-lapse imaging or continuous monitoring, we desire sensor arrays that require little effort, money, and power to maintain over long periods of time. Distributed Acoustic Sensing repurposes a standard fiber optic cable as a series of single-component strain rate sensors with spacing at the scale of meters over distances of kilometers. With a single location providing the power source and recording all data, along with the ability to use existing underground fiber optic networks, a small team is now able to easily establish a monitoring network and acquire massive amounts of strain rate data continuously.</p><p>This talk will explore two conceptual changes when using DAS data for ambient noise interferometry: greatly increased data volumes, and the difference between velocity and distributed strain-rate data. These two challenges will be illustrated in the context of experiments with applications in near-surface Vs imaging with applications in earthquake hazard analysis, permafrost thaw monitoring, and urban geohazard and hydrology monitoring.</p><p>On the issue of data volumes: Orders of magnitude more sensors and high sample rates (often in the kilohertz range) quickly result in data quantities that exceed the limits of computational infrastructure and algorithms available to many seismologists, potentially at the petabyte/year scale for modern acquisition instruments. New algorithms focused on reduced data movement are improving our ability to analyze more data with existing resources. This talk will include a brief overview of some recent algorithmic improvements for both ambient noise interferometry for imaging, and interferometry-based event detection.</p><p>On the issue of changing from velocity to distributed strain rate data: Because strain rate is a tensor quantity and velocities are a vector quantity, the sensitivity of DAS to seismic sources at different orientations is quite different from typical seismometers. This difference can be clear both in polarity and amplitude of the signal, and is particularly significant in shear and Love wave recordings. We will describe simple models to describe expected changes in how seismometers and DAS record the same noises, and the corresponding changes expected in noise correlation functions. These sensitivity differences are more pronounced in ambient noise correlation functions than they are in raw signal recordings, effectively emphasizing a different distribution of ambient noise sources. Modeling these sensitivities helps determine which sensor orientations are reliable for use in ambient noise interferometry imaging.</p>

Ti3Al is an ordered intermetallic compound having the DO19-type superlattice structure. The compound exhibits very limited ductility in tension below 700°C because of a pronounced planarity of slip and the absence of a sufficient number of independent slip systems. Significant differences in slip behavior in the compound as a result of differences in strain rate and mode of deformation are reported here.Figure 1 is a comparison of dislocation substructures in polycrystalline Ti3Al specimens deformed in tension, creep, and fatigue. Slip activity on both the basal and prism planes is observed for each mode of deformation. The dominant slip vector in unidirectional deformation is the a-type (b) = <1120>) (Fig. la). The dislocations are straight, occur for the most part in a screw orientation, and are arranged in planar bands. In contrast, the dislocation distribution in specimens crept at 700°C (Fig. lb) is characterized by a much reduced planarity of slip, a tangled dislocation arrangement instead of planar bands, and an increased incidence of nonbasal slip vectors.

Investigation of frictional forces -Experimental techniques and working conditions in the high voltage electron microscope have already been described (1). Care has been taken in order to minimize both surface and radiation effects under deformation conditions.Dislocation densities and velocities are measured on the records of the deformation. It can be noticed that mobile dislocation densities can be far below the total dislocation density in the operative system. The local strain-rate can be deduced from these measurements. The local flow stresses are deduced from the curvature radii of the dislocations when the local strain-rate reaches the values of ∿ 10-4 s-1.For a straight screw segment of length L moving by double-kink nucleation between two pinning points, the velocity is :where ΔG(τ) is the activation energy and lc the critical length for double-kink nucleation. The term L/lc takes into account the number of simultaneous attempts for double-kink nucleation on the dislocation line.

Little evidence exists on the interaction of individual dislocations with recrystallized grain boundaries, primarily because of the severely overlapping contrast of the high dislocation density usually present during recrystallization. Interesting evidence of such interaction, Fig. 1, was discovered during examination of some old work on the hot deformation of Al-4.64 Cu. The specimen was deformed in a programmable thermomechanical instrument at 527 C and a strain rate of 25 cm/cm/s to a strain of 0.7. Static recrystallization occurred during a post anneal of 23 s also at 527 C. The figure shows evidence of dissociation of a subboundary at an intersection with a recrystallized high-angle grain boundary. At least one set of dislocations appears to be out of contrast in Fig. 1, and a grainboundary precipitate also is visible. Unfortunately, only subgrain sizes were of interest at the time the micrograph was recorded, and no attempt was made to analyze the dislocation structure.

The effect of varying the strain rate loading conditions in compression on a copper single crystal dispersion-hardened with SiO2 particles has been examined. These particles appear as small spherical inclusions in the copper lattice and have a volume fraction of 0.6%. The structure of representative crystals was examined prior to any testing on a transmission electron microscope (TEM) to determine the nature of the dislocations initially present in the tested crystals. Only a few scattered edge and screw dislocations were viewed in those specimens.
