A simple seismic record synthesis for common‐depth‐point data was examined for analytic representation in terms of its harmonic spectrum. This frequency‐domain investigation revealed that the primary‐reflection signal can be completely recovered in the absence of random noise, or it can be better recovered in the presence of random noise than normal stacking affords, especially, if the coherent‐noise‐to‐random‐noise ratio is high. The success of this technique is founded upon the principle that difference equations in the time domain become algebraic equations in the frequency domain. The technique is partially “probabilistic” because analytic solutions for the primary‐reflection signal are stacked for further attenuation of noise. The constituents of the seismic records, after static and normal‐moveout corrections, are: identical, coincident, primary‐reflection signal; identical, time‐shifted coherent noise; and random noise. The coherent‐noise time shifts must be determined for application of the semideterministic technique; methods are discussed in the Data Processing section.

Common-reflection-point (CRP) gather is one extensive-used prestack seismic data type. However, CRP suffers more noise than poststack seismic dataset. The events in the CRP gather are always flat, and the effective signals from neighboring traces in the CRP gather have similar forms not only in the time domain but also in the time-frequency domain. Therefore, we firstly use the synchrosqueezing wavelet transform (SSWT) to decompose seismic traces to the time-frequency domain, as the SSWT has better time-frequency resolution and reconstruction properties. Then we propose to use the similarity of neighboring traces to smooth and threshold the SSWT coefficients in the time-frequency domain. Finally, we used the modified SSWT coefficients to reconstruct the denoised traces for the CRP gather. Synthetic and field data examples show that our proposed method can effectively attenuate random noise with a better attenuation performance than the commonly-used principal component analysis, FX filter, and the continuous wavelet transform method.

Several writers have proposed the use of multichannel filters for the elimination of coherent noise on seismic records. One filter of this type which can be constructed is a multichannel Wiener filter which has a multichannel input and a single channel output. In this form, it is applicable to data collected for vertical or horizontal common‐depth‐point stack processing. The choice of desired output characteristics for this Wiener filter is flexible and, for example, can be tuned to correspond to multichannel deconvolution. The results of the application of filters of this type to field and synthetic data, in general, show little if any advantage over single‐channel deconvolution. This failure appears to be connected with the low cross coherence of both noise and reflection signal on field‐recorded, common‐depth‐point traces.

Reflection profiles shot about 10 km north of the Edmonton seismic observatory (EDM) indicate dips within the crust of 15 to 20° southeast, with a prominent reflecting horizon at 20 km apparently being offset 4 km by a fault. The average velocity in the crust to this horizon is 6.3–6.4 km/s. Deeper reflections tentatively correlated with the "Riel" discontinuity mapped in southern Alberta indicate a velocity in a second layer of 6.5 km/s to a depth of 32 km, with the base of the crust being essentially horizontal at 35.5 km. The lowermost portion of the crust appears to be significantly thinner here than in southern Alberta, although the general features of the seismic records appear similar in both locations.Velocities are determined by a modified version of the velocity spectrum technique, which does not require common depth point data.

Тhe advantage of combine processing of frequency domain and time domain data provided by the EQUATOR system is discussed. The heliborne complex has a towed transmitter, and, raised above it on the same cable a towed receiver. The excitation signal contains both pulsed and harmonic components. In fact, there are two independent transmitters operate in the system: one of them is a normal pulsed domain transmitter, with a half-sinusoidal pulse and a small "cut" on the falling edge, and the other one is a classical frequency domain transmitter at several specially selected frequencies. The received signal is first processed to a direct Fourier transform with high Q-factor detection at all significant frequencies. After that, in the spectral region, operations of converting the spectra of two sounding signals to a single spectrum of an ideal transmitter are performed. Than we do an inverse Fourier transform and return to the time domain. The detection of spectral components is done at a frequency band of several Hz, the receiver has the ability to perfectly suppress all sorts of extra-band noise. The detection bandwidth is several dozen times less the frequency interval between the harmonics, it turns out thatto achieve the same measurement quality of ground response without using out-of-band suppression you need several dozen times higher moment of airborne transmitting system. The data obtained from the model of a homogeneous half-space, a two-layered model, and a model of a horizontally layered medium is considered. A time-domain data makes it easier to detect a conductor in a relative insulator at greater depths. The data in the frequency domain gives more detailed information about subsurface. These conclusions are illustrated by the example of processing the survey data of the Republic of Rwanda in 2017. The simultaneous inversion of data in frequency domain and time domain can significantly improve the quality of interpretation.

This paper applies a numerical method of polynomial function approximation to the numerical analysis of variable fractional order viscoelastic rotating beam. First, the governing equation of the viscoelastic rotating beam is established based on the variable fractional model of the viscoelastic material. Second, shifted Bernstein polynomials and Legendre polynomials are used as basis functions to approximate the governing equation and the original equation is converted to matrix product form. Based on the configuration method, the matrix equation is further transformed into algebraic equations and numerical solutions of the governing equation are obtained directly in the time domain. Finally, the efficiency of the proposed algorithm is proved by analyzing the numerical solutions of the displacement of rotating beam under different loads.

The numerical procedures for dynamic analysis of mooring lines in the time domain and frequency domain were developed in this work. The lumped mass method was used to model the mooring lines. In the time domain dynamic analysis, the modified Euler method was used to solve the motion equation of mooring lines. The dynamic analyses of mooring lines under horizontal, vertical, and combined harmonic excitations were carried out. The cases of single-component and multicomponent mooring lines under these excitations were studied, respectively. The case considering the seabed contact was also included. The program was validated by comparing with the results from commercial software, Orcaflex. For the frequency domain dynamic analysis, an improved frame invariant stochastic linearization method was applied to the nonlinear hydrodynamic drag term. The cases of single-component and multicomponent mooring lines were studied. The comparison of results shows that frequency domain results agree well with nonlinear time domain results.

Inherent in the construction of many experimental apparatus designed to measure the hydro/aerodynamic forces of rotating machinery are features that contribute undesirable parasitic forces to the measured or test forces. Typically, these parasitic forces are due to seals, drive couplings, and hydraulic and/or inertial unbalance. To obtain accurate and sensitive measurement of the hydro/aerodynamic forces in these situations, it is necessary to subtract the parasitic forces from the test forces. In general, both the test forces and the parasitic forces will be dependent on the system operating conditions including the specific motion of the rotor. Therefore, to properly remove the parasitic forces the vibration orbits and operating conditions must be the same in tests for determining the hydro/aerodynamic forces and tests for determining the parasitic forces. This, in turn, necessitates a means by which the test rotor’s motion can be accurately controlled to an arbitrarily defined trajectory. Here in, an interrupt-driven multiple harmonic open-loop controller was developed and implemented on a laboratory centrifugal pump rotor supported in magnetic bearings (active load cells) for this purpose. This allowed the simultaneous control of subharmonic, synchronous, and superharmonic rotor vibration frequencies with each frequency independently forced to some user defined orbital path. The open-loop controller was implemented on a standard PC using commercially available analog input and output cards. All analog input and output functions, transformation of the position signals from the time domain to the frequency domain, and transformation of the open-loop control signals from the frequency domain to the time domain were performed in an interrupt service routine. Rotor vibration was attenuated to the noise floor, vibration amplitude ≈0.2 μm, or forced to a user specified orbital trajectory. Between the whirl frequencies of 14 and 2 times running speed, the orbit semi-major and semi-minor axis magnitudes were controlled to within 0.5% of the requested axis magnitudes. The ellipse angles and amplitude phase angles of the imposed orbits were within 0.3 deg and 1.0 deg, respectively, of their requested counterparts.

Dynamic soil-structure interaction (SSI) analysis of nuclear power plants is often performed in frequency domain using programs such as SASSI [1]. This enables the analyst to properly a) address the effects of wave radiation in an unbounded soil media, b) incorporate strain-compatible soil shear modulus and damping properties and c) specify input motion in the free field using the de-convolution method and/or spatially variable ground motions. For structures that exhibit nonlinearities such as potential base sliding and/or uplift, the frequency-domain procedure is not applicable as it is limited to linear systems. For such problems, it is necessary to solve the problem in the time domain using the direct integration method in programs such as ADINA [2]. The authors recently introduced a sub-structuring technique called distributed parameter foundation impedance (DPFI) model that allows the structure to be partitioned from the total SSI system and analyzed in the time domain while the foundation soil is modeled using the frequency-domain procedure [3]. This procedure has been validated for linear systems. In this paper we have expanded the DPFI model to incorporate nonlinearities at the soil/structure interface by introducing nonlinear shear and normal springs arranged in series between the DPFI and structure model. This combination of the linear far-field impedance (DPFI) plus nonlinear near-field soil springs allows the foundation sliding and/or uplift behavior be analyzed in time domain while maintaining the frequency-dependent stiffness and radiation damping nature of the far-field foundation impedance. To check the accuracy of this procedure, a typical NPP foundation mat supported at the surface of a layered soil system and subjected to harmonic forced vibration was first analyzed in the frequency domain using SASSI to calculate the target linear response and derive a linear, far-field DPFI model. The target linear solution was then used to validate two linear time-domain ADINA models: Model 1 consisting of the mat foundation+DPFI derived from the linear SASSI model and Model 2 consisting of the total SSI system (mat foundation plus a soil block). After linear alignment, the nonlinear springs were added to both ADINA models and re-analyzed in time domain. Model 2 provided the target nonlinear solution while Model 1 provided the results using the DPFI+nonlinear springs. By increasing the amplitude of the vibration load, different levels of foundation sliding were simulated. Good agreement between the results of two models in terms of the displacement response of the mat and cyclic force-displacement behavior of the springs validates the accuracy of the procedure presented herein.

Vibroseis obtained the seismic record by cross-correlation detection calculation. compared with dynamite source, cross-correlation detection can suppress random noise, but produce more correlation noise. This paper studies Radon transform to remove correlation noise produced by electromagnetic drive vibroseis and impact rammer. From the results of processing field seismic records, we can see that Radon transform can remove correlation noise by vibroseis, the SNR of vibroseis seismic data is effectively improved.

This paper deals with the analysis of interharmonics, which are due to the presence of a nonlinear load. The tool for the analysis was a mathematical apparatus - wavelet packet transform. Which has a number of advantages over the traditional Fourier transform. A simulation model was developed in Simulink to simulate a non-stationary non-sinusoidal mode. The use of the wavelet packet transform will allow to determine the mode parameters with high accuracy from the obtained wavelet coefficients. It also makes it possible to obtain information, both in the frequency domain of the signal and in the time domain.
