In order to replace the complex frequency domain method, a time-domain method to calculate the free field motion of a layered half-space subjected to oblique incident body waves is developed in this paper. The new method decouples the equations of motion used in the finite element method and offers an interpolation formula of the free field motion. This formula is based on the fact that the apparent horizontal velocity of the free field motion is constant and can be calculated exactly. Both the theoretical analysis and numerical results demonstrate that the proposed method offers a high degree of accuracy.展开更多

Based on the available experimental data of nuclear double β--decay, we propose that there is a law between the logarithm of double β--decay half-lives and the reciprocal of the decay energy. The physics behind the law is discussed and it is found that this is associated with the universal properties of the weak interaction. This doubleβ--decay law is similar to the famous Geiger-Nuttall law of α-decay. The law is applied to predictions of the nuclear double β--decay half-lives for six even-even nuclei from Z = 84 to Z = 98 and we found that232 Th is very interesting for future experiments. The branching ratios between double β--decay and α-decay are also estimated for the six even-even nuclei and this is useful for future experimental search of new emitters of doubleβ--decay.展开更多
