Measurements of Young's Modulus on Rock Samples at Small Amplitude and Low Frequency : RockHard Deformations

This thesis describes a new instrumental approach designed to measure the complex Young’s modulus on cylindrical samples 1 inch in diameter 2 inch long and typically in the range of 1-70 GPa. Excitation frequencies are from 11 Hz to 167 Hz. The setup is based on the Forced Deformation Metho...
