Attenuation coefficients of the maximum amplitude and the spectral amplitude of stress waves in non-elastic zones of explosive sources

  • Published:
pure and applied geophysics Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

The dependences of the values of coefficients of attenuation of the maximum amplitude and of the spectral amplitude were determined from stress wave records obtained from measurements in gravel sandy soil. These dependences were expressed mathematically and their interrelations are discussed.
