Numerical simulations of vertical seismic profiles in flat‐layered elastic media using the discrete wavenumber method are presented. The effect of source‐borehole sep‐ aration on recorded wave types and amplitudes is studied. For nonzero source offsets, transverse and converted waves become very important and can be more energetic than the direct compressional arrivals. A systematic comparison of results from acoustic and elastic simulations shows that the acoustic approximation is quite valid for a zero source offset but becomes inadequate when the configuration of the source and vertical geo‐ phone array is two‐dimensional. Recording of both pressure and displacement allows a simple separation of transverse and compressional arrivals as long as the effect of the borehole on the incoming waves can be neglected.

AbstractFunction elements (FE) are vital components of nanochannel-systems for artificially regulating ion transport. Conventionally, the FE at inner wall (FEIW) of nanochannel−systems are of concern owing to their recognized effect on the compression of ionic passageways. However, their properties are inexplicit or generally presumed from the properties of the FE at outer surface (FEOS), which will bring potential errors. Here, we show that the FEOS independently regulate ion transport in a nanochannel−system without FEIW. The numerical simulations, assigned the measured parameters of FEOS to the Poisson and Nernst-Planck (PNP) equations, are well fitted with the experiments, indicating the generally explicit regulating-ion-transport accomplished by FEOS without FEIW. Meanwhile, the FEOS fulfill the key features of the pervious nanochannel systems on regulating-ion-transport in osmotic energy conversion devices and biosensors, and show advantages to (1) promote power density through concentrating FE at outer surface, bringing increase of ionic selectivity but no obvious change in internal resistance; (2) accommodate probes or targets with size beyond the diameter of nanochannels. Nanochannel-systems with only FEOS of explicit properties provide a quantitative platform for studying substrate transport phenomena through nanoconfined space, including nanopores, nanochannels, nanopipettes, porous membranes and two-dimensional channels.
