In this study, we suggest a method to measure the thickness of thin films nondestructively using the dispersion characteristics of a surface acoustic wave propagating along the thin film surface. To measure the thickness of thin films, we deposited thin films with different thicknesses on a Si (100) wafer substrate by controlling the deposit time using the E-beam evaporation method. The thickness of the thin films was measured using a scanning electron microscope. Subsequently, the surface wave velocity of the thin films with different thicknesses was measured using the V(z) curve method of scanning acoustic microscopy. The correlation between the measured thickness and surface acoustic wave velocity was verified. The wave velocity of the film decreased as the film thickness increased. Therefore, thin film thickness can be determined by measuring the dispersion characteristics of the surface acoustic wave velocity.

It is needed the introduction of a new wave dispersion relationship considering the condition of seabed to examine closely the interaction between wave and seabed. In this study, a wave dispersion relationship is newly developed considering the condition of seabed such as permeability and displacement. Wave damping rates are compared and analysed according to the various soil parameters such as seabed soil thickness, elastic modulus, saturation, permeability, and porosity.

When wet soil overlies dry soil, which can be found in the infiltration test, the radar wave is not attenuated and guided within wet soil layer. This phenomenon is known to be the dispersive guided wave and happens when the thickness of upper wet layer is less than or comparable to the wavelength of radar wave. In this study, we have conducted the FDTD modeling and obtained the velocity dispersion curve to identify the dispersive guided wave through F-K analysis. This guided wave can be explained by modal propagation theory and a simple inversion code was developed to obtain the two layer's dielectric constants as well as layer thickness. By inverting the dispersion curve from synthetic modeling data, we could obtain the accurate dielectric constants and layer thickness. Moreover, we could enhance the accuracy by including the higher mode data. We expect this method will be very useful to get the quantitative property of subsurface when the condition is similar.

파랑의 변형 가운데 천수, 굴절, 회절, 반사를 예측하는 수학적 모형은 크게 두 가지 유형으로 나눌 수 있는데, 첫 번째로 파형경사인 ha(k：파수. $\alpha$：진폭)를 비선형의 매개변수로 하는 Stokes 파랑식이 있고, 두 번째로 상대파고인 $\alpha$/h를 비선형의 매개변수로 하고 상대수심인 kh를 분산성의 매개변수로 하는 천수방정식(Shallow water equation)이 있다. 파랑의 변형 가운데 천수, 굴절만을 예측하고 회절, 반사를 예측하지 못하는 수학적 모형으로는 에너지 이송방정식이 있다. (중략)

The evaluation of shear modulus is very important in various fields of civil engineering. Non-destructive seismic methods can be used to determine shear wave velocity ($V_s$) profile. Non-destructive seismic methods geneally consist of three steps: field testing, evaluation of dispersion curve, and determination of Vs profile by inversion process. Non-destructive seismic methods can be divided into two categories according to the number of receivers used for data reduction: two-channel tests and multi-channel tests. Two channel tests use apparent velocity dispersion curve and multi-channel tests use mode dispersion curves. Multi-channel tests using mode dispersion curve can reduce calculation time to determine soil profile and uncertainties in inversion process. So far, only multi-channel tests can determine mode dispersion curves but multi-channel test needs many receivers to determine reasonable mode dispersion curves. In this paper, HWAW (Harmonic Wavelet Analysis of Wave) method is applied to determine mode dispersion curves. HWAW method uses short test setup which consists of two receivers with a spacing of 1 to 3 m. Through numerical simulations and field application, it is shown that HWAW can determine resonable mode disperson curves.

불규칙파를 사용하여 설계 자료로 이용하기 위해서는 설계해역에서 불규칙파의 파랑변형을 예측할 수 있는 수치모형의 개발이 선행되어야 한다. 비선형 불규칙파의 거동을 해석할 수 있는 Boussinesq 방정식은 상대파고인 $\alpha$/h($\alpha$는 수면의 진폭, h는 수심임)를 비선형의 매개변수로 하고 상대수심인 kh(k는 파수임)를 분산성의 매개변수로 하여 섭동법을 사용하여 유도된다. Boussinesq 식은 수심이 일정한 경우에 Boussinesq(1872)가 비선형 항을 O($\alpha$/h,(kh)$^2$)까지 포함하여 처음으로 개발하였고 수심의 변화가 완만한 경우에 Peregrine(1967)이 개발하였다. (중략)

The spectral-analysis-of-surface-waves (SASW) method is a nondestructive testing method based upon generation and detection of elastic stress waves. SASW is widely used as one of the techniques to determine stiffness profile in engineering geophysics. The essential steps involved are construction of an experimental dispersion curve from data collected in situ, and inversion of the dispersion curve to determine the stiffness profile. The main object of this study is to derive an analytical Jacobian for the inversion. If we set the subsurface to N homogeneous layer, it could save 2N times Jacobian calculation compared to numerical jacobian calculation during inversion. To reconstruct a stiffness profile, constrained damped least square method was applied for the inversion. The algorithm was tested for the numerical data and for the real asphalt and tunnel data, which were able to verify the stiffness profile. The stiffness profile reconstructed by the algorithm showed the possibility to appraise the soundness of tunnel with applications SASW.

본 글에서는 속이 찬 실린더(solid cylinder)에서의 비대칭 탄성파전파 문제를 풀기 위한 해석적 방법의 일부를 소개하고자 한다. 속이찬 실린더에 있어서는 측면벽의 경계조건에 상관없이 평 판에서의 Fourier 시리즈와 유사한 단순해가 존재하지 않는다고 밝혀져 왔다(1). 그러나 최근 발표된 본인의 논문(2)에서 지적된 것처럼, 매우 특별한 측면 경계조건을 갖는 경우에만 정해가 존재한다. 특히 탄성파전파에 관한 한, 이러한 정해는 물리적으로 볼 때 팽창파(dilatational wave)와 전단파(shear wave)가 서로 얽히지 않는 상태에 해당되기 때문에, 소위 "비혼합 해(uncoupled solution)"라 불린다. 이 "비혼합해(uncoupled solution)"의 실제 사용 예를 들면, 상술된 바와 같이 일반적인 측면 경계조건을 갖는 속이 찬 실린더 문제를 풀기 위한 시도함 수(trial function)로 사용될 수 있을 것이다. 주지하는 바와 같이 자유측면벽(traction-free cylindrical wall)을 갖는 속이 찬 실린더는 공학적으로 매우 중요한 구조요소이다. 이 경우에는 측면벽의 경계조건으로 말미암아, 해가 정해의 형태로 존재하지 않는다. 특히 이 구조물에서의 탄성파전파 문제를 다루고자 할 때, 먼저 분산관계식(dispersion relation)을 구한 다음, 이를 이 용해 경계문제를 푸는 것이 상용적으로 사용되는 방법이다. 이 분산 관계식은 파장과 주파수 와의 관계를 나타내는 것으로, 그 복잡성으로 말미암아 이 식을 사용되는 수치해법으로 정확하게 구하는 것은 거의 불가능하다. 따라서, 본 글에서는 특별한 측면벽을 갖는 속이 찬 실린더의 비혼합해를 활용하여 자유측면벽을 갖는 속이 찬 실린더의 분산관계식(pochhammer의 분산관 계식이라 불린다)을 구하는 법을 설명하고자 한다. 이를 위해 비혼합해가 존재하는 측면경계조 건에 대해 먼저 살펴보고자 한다.조 건에 대해 먼저 살펴보고자 한다.

Various field setup and filtering criteria have been suggested to avoid the near field effects in surface wave methods. Unlike other surface wave methods HWAW method uses the near field component positively. It is possible by using maximum energy point based on time-frequency map and inversion method to consider receiver locations from the source point and body wave component. To verify the HWAW method in the near field numerical study was performed and the wave propagation in the stratified soil media was simulated due to a surface point load. All of five representative soil models were used. The experimental dispersion curves, determined by HWAW method at the various receiver distances in the region of near field, all coincided well with the theoretical dispersion curves determined by 3D forward modeling (Kausel's method). Consequently, it was considered that the HWAW method can provide reliable $V_s$ profiles effectively in the near field.

Minimum reflection and backward radiation methods on liquid/solid interrace were used to determine the velocity dispersion relation of acoustical surface wave for brass and aluminum substrates and copper/stainless steel nickel/brass, and nickel/aluminum layered substrates. Dispersion data agreed to dispersion characteristics of a generalized Lamb wave. The difference between velocities determined by two phenomena was closely related to the dispersion characteristics. This correspondence was explained by considering the generation mechanism of surface waves and the concept of group velocity.
