Earthen levees are commonly used protective structures against seasonal flood activity. Monitoring of the embankments condition is an important issue related to the protection of people's lives, their property, environment and infrastructure. The assessment of the physical condition of the levee can be obtained by comparison of the sensors measurements? localized within the embankment and the changes in parameters values obtained as a result of numerical modelling of flooding process. Uncertainty of the values of ...

The accuracy of location of seismic sources using time reversal imaging techniques is considered in this article. The location procedure is performed using backpropagation of the recorded and reversed seismic signal from receiver throughout assumed geological model. The new imaging parameters, peak average power ratio (PAPR) coefficient is used for efficient visualization of the backpropagation of the seismic energy. The detection of seismic wave focusing was carried out on the basis of the high PAPR parameter val...

In this paper, we present a performance assessment of the implementation of the algorithm of wave sources location using wave field modelling on a Graphics Processing Units (GPUs). The numerical algorithm of wave source location based on the acoustic wave equation was implemented using finite difference method. To achieve better wave source location, the algorithm was implemented using staggered grid meshes. The parallelization was carried out using GPU approach, established in NVIDIAпїЅs Compute Unified Developme...

In this paper a new method of dual-polarimetric SAR image coregistration procedures is proposed. Both cases - coarse and fine coregistration are considered. In the proposed approaches the widely used coherence parameter is not applied. Instead, the dual-polarimetric signatures are exploited. They allow to identify location of strong point scatterers within the SAR images. These scatterers can be further used in coregistration procedure as reference points. The developed algorithms described in this work were teste...
