Relationships between compressional-wave and shear-wave velocities in clastic silicate rocks
New velocity data in addition to literature data derived from sonic log, seismic, and laboratory measurements are analyzed for elastic silicate rocks. These data demonstrate simple systematic relationships between compressional and shear wave velocities. For water-saturated elastic silicate rocks, shear wave velocity is approximately linearly related to compressional wave velocity and the compr...
متن کاملDetermination of acoustic shear and compressional wave velocities for steel samples by impulse excitation of vibration
A standard tool to determine the dynamic Young and shear moduli for refractory materials is based on measuring the free resonance frequencies of a bar of rectangular section. This measurement can be performed either by response to an impulse, or using a periodic excitation of slowly varying frequency. One of the great advantages of this resonance technique is its simplicity: it does not require...
متن کاملA unifying fractional wave equation for compressional and shear waves.
This study has been motivated by the observed difference in the range of the power-law attenuation exponent for compressional and shear waves. Usually compressional attenuation increases with frequency to a power between 1 and 2, while shear wave attenuation often is described with powers less than 1. Another motivation is the apparent lack of partial differential equations with desirable prope...
متن کاملEmpirical relation for estimating shear wave velocity from compressional wave velocity of rocks
In situ shear wave velocity is one of the most important parameters for evaluating dynamic elastic moduli and needs special energy sources for generation and receivers for detection. Identification of shear wave phase on a seismic record needs skill as it is not the first wave to arrive and is usually embedded in surface waves. To estimate shear wave velocity for site characterization and for p...
متن کاملTheory of compressional and shear waves in fluidlike marine sediments
An unconsolidated, saturated marine sediment consists of a more or less loose assemblage of mineral grains in contact, with seawater in the interstices. It is postulated that the two-phase medium possesses no skeletal frame, implying that the elastic rigidity modulus of the material is zero. A theory of wave propagation in such a sediment is developed, in which the medium is treated as a fluid ...
