Determination of viscosity of rocks by a dynamic resonance technique

Results of forced vibration tests in longitudinal and transverse modes on three different rocks are presented. The experimental investigation leads to evaluation of solid viscosity parameters as a function of frequency and logarithmic decrement. Linear viscoelasticity theory is applied to the test...
