The application of laser generated ultrasonics was first
demonstrated in the mid-seventies and has shown good potential
when applied to isotropic materials. However, its use with
composite materials is still in the early stages of development.
This study explores the potential for application of laser
generated Rayleigh and Lamb waves...
On November 6, 1988, two strong earthquakes (Mw: 7.0 and 6.8) separated
by about 13 minutes occurred in Yunnan Province, China. The aftershocks located
by Kunming Telemetered Seismic Network form a lineament approximately 120 km
long and 20 km wide with the long dimension oriented approximately N30°W. The
epicenter of...
