Examination of a novel wavelet based approach for bender element testing
Presented at the 4th Symposium on Bridge & Infrastructure Research in Ireland, 4-5 December 2008, Galway, IrelandAccurate determination of shear wave arrival time using bender elements may be severely affected by a combination of near field effects and reflected waves. In most cases, the nearfield effect masks the first arrival and it makes its detection difficult in the time domain. Nevertheless the arrival of a shear wave creates a detectable singular point. This paper tests a recent approach for the assessment of shear wave arrival time by analysing the output signal in the time-scale domain using a multi-scale wavelet transform. Indeed, one can follow the local maxima lines of the wavelet transform modulus across scales, to detect the location of all singularities leading to detection of the first arrival.Not applicableConference website n/a.

Spatially resolved spectroscopy of Coma Cluster early‐type galaxies. IV. Completing the data set
The long-slit spectra obtained along the minor axis, offset major axis, and diagonal axis are presented for 12 E and S0 galaxies of the Coma Cluster drawn from a magnitude-limited sample studied before. The rotation curves, velocity dispersion profiles, and the H_3 and H_4 coefficients of the Hermite decomposition of the line-of-sight velocity distribution are derived. The radial profiles of the Hβ, Mg, and Fe line strength indices are measured too. In addition, the surface photometry of the central regions of a subsample of four galaxies recently obtained with the Hubble Space Telescope is presented. The data will be used to construct dynamical models of the galaxies and study their stellar populations
