Abstract
We investigate the use of seismic sensors as small seismic sources. A voltage signal is applied to a number of geophones, forcing the mass within the geophones to move, generating a seismic wavefield that is recorded on a separate array of geophones. We observe higher-frequency (25 Hz and above) surface and body waves propagating from the geophone source at offsets of 10s of metres.
A significance statement is not available in the OpenAlex record.
A contribution statement is not available in the OpenAlex record.
Method details are not available in the OpenAlex metadata.
Findings are not separately available in the OpenAlex metadata.
Limitations are not available in the OpenAlex metadata.
Application details are not available in the OpenAlex metadata.
