Investigation of the viscoelastic properties of a water-saturated sediment.

Experiments were made in the laboratory to determine the feasibility of adapting to the measurement of the shear elastic properties of sediment- like materials techniques already proven for use on viscoelastic liquids. A torsional transducer attached to an aluminum rod was immersed in a Kaolin s...
