The use of surface wave techniques for verification of dynamic rigidity measurements in a kaolinite-water artificial sediment.

A three-dimensional model for the study of surface wave speed measurements in simulated ocean bottom sediments has been constructed using a high-porosity kaolinite-water mixture in a rectangular tank in the laboratory. The propagation of surface waves , assumed to be Rayleigh waves , was studie...
