Accurate measurement is important in various fields, from seismological studies to detect zones of partial melting to the geophysics of reservoirs to study rock properties such as porosity, fluid properties and saturation and permeability. In seismology, the quality factors measured for normal (standing) modes and propagating waves differ, as well those of equivalent experiments based on resonant rods and ultrasonic pulses performed in the laboratory. These measurements result in temporal and spatial quality factors respectively. A relationship between these two different quality factors and between the corresponding attenuation factors was proposed by Knopoff et al. sixty years ago. The conversion factor is basically the ratio between the phase velocity and the group velocity, while for the attenuation factor is the group velocity.

The analysis of the energy distribution and the space wave attenuation reveals that the metamaterial can attenuate the elastic waves in an exponential form within the bandgaps along the lattice. The finite element model is established to show the dynamic behaviour of the elastic wave propagation in the frequency domain and transient domain. Both results show that waves can be efficiently blocked within the bandgaps, while outside the bandgaps, waves can propagate without any attenuation.

In this work, we address these questions by establishing estimates on the lifespan of solutions to non-integrable equations involving a general class of nonlinearities. These estimates depend on the size of the initial data, the growth of the nonlinearity, and relevant quantities associated with the amplitude of the background. The estimates provide quantified upper bounds for the minimum guaranteed lifespan of solutions. Qualitatively, for small initial data and background, these upper bounds suggest long survival times consistent with global existence of solutions. On the other hand, for larger initial data and background, the estimates indicate the potential for the intriguing phenomenon of instantaneous collapse in finite time. These qualitative theoretical results are illustrated via numerical simulations. Furthermore, importantly, the numerical findings motivate the proof of improved theoretical upper bounds that provide excellent quantitative agreement with the order of the numerically identified lifespan of solutions.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":49367,"journal":{"name":"Wave Motion","volume":"132 ","pages":"Article 103419"},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2024-10-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142531509","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
