Experience of using standing waves generated by seismoacoustic noise to solve engineering seismic problems
https://doi.org/10.18303/2619-1563-2025-4-42
Abstract
This article presents examples of the application of a passive seismic method to solve engineering seismic problems. This method is based on the extraction from a seismoacoustic noise field of standing waves generated by such noise within confined objects. The studies were conducted on both natural and man-made objects at various scales – from a few centimeters (e.g., to assess the thickness of ice cover on water reservoirs) to tens of meters (specifically, to determine the natural frequencies and vibration modes of buildings and structures).
Keywords
in-situ experiments,
seismoacoustic noise,
passive seismic observations,

accumulation,
standing waves
Supporting agencies: the study was carried out as part of government assignment to the Russian Academy of Sciences in basic research, Project FWZZ-2022-0017.
