<p>Knowledge of inductive effects is important for the reliability of geomagnetic surveys as well as reduction of measurements, and hence for the accuracy of models and maps of the Earth’s magnetic field. Detection of anomalous induced fields, due to the geomagnetic coast effect, was carried out by the transfer function method to estimate the induction arrows indicating areas of anomalous induced currents. To determine the transfer function at the two coastal Croatian repeat stations used in this study, the so-called geomagnetic plane-wave events from July 2010 were used. Analysis of transfer functions for Krbavsko polje and Sinjsko polje first order repeat stations, using observatories Grocka and Tihany as references, revealed the existence of the Adriatic coastal effect on periods of 10-65 minutes.</p>

Substructuring approaches are nowadays widely used to predict numerically the vibroacoustic behavior of complex mechanical systems. Some of these methods are based on admittance or mobility frequency transfer functions at the coupling interfaces. They have already been used intensively to couple subsystems linked by point contacts and enable to solve problems at higher frequency while saving computation costs. In the case of subsystems coupled along lines, a Condensed Transfer Function method is developed in the present paper. The admittances on the coupling line are condensed in order to reduce the number of coupling forces evaluated. Three variants are presented, where the transfer functions are condensed using three different functions. After describing the principle of the CTF method, simple structures will be given as test cases for validation.

A semi-analytical solution method, called the Finite Difference–Distributed Transfer Function Method, is developed for static and dynamic problems of two-dimensional elastic bodies composed of multiple rectangular subregions. In the development, the original two-dimensional elasticity problem is first reduced into a one-dimensional boundary-value problem by finite difference; the exact solution of the reduced problem is then obtained by using the distributed transfer functions of the elastic continuum. The proposed technique, which combines the simplicity of finite difference and the closed form of analytical solutions, is capable of handling arbitrary boundary conditions, delivers highly accurate solutions for static and dynamic problems, and is computationally efficient. The proposed method is illustrated on a square region and an L-shaped region.
