Measuring Shear Wave Velocity Using Bender Elements

open access: yesGeotechnical Testing Journal, 2005
Abstract The use of bender element to measure shear wave velocity is popular due to its simplicity. However, there are still some uncertainties in the interpretation of the bender element test. In this paper, the use of bender elements in the determination of shear wave velocities of dry, unsaturated, and saturated soil specimens is ...

Bender elements: bad source – good receiver

open access: yes, 2008
Shear wave velocity measurement in the laboratory, by means of Bender Elements is becoming more and more popular for geotechnical characterization. The reasons of the increasing popularity of such method are well known and among the many the “apparent” simplicity of the testing method should be mentioned.

Measurement of material damping with bender elements in triaxial cell

open access: yes, 2003
Abstract: This paper presents a method to measure the viscous damping ratio of soils in isotropic stress conditions using a triaxial cell equipped with piezoceramic bender elements. The technique is based on the determination of a frequency response spectrum of the soil specimen by means of a continuous sine excitation generated by the emitter element.

Measuring shear and compression wave velocities of soil using bender–extender elements

open access: yesCanadian Geotechnical Journal, 2009
Piezoceramic elements have been used for laboratory measurement of wave velocity in soil and rock specimens. Shear-wave piezoceramic elements (bender elements) are commonly used to measure shear wave velocity for the determination of small-strain shear ...

Combined bender elements and accelerometers system: Measurement and interpretation

open access: yes, 2016
Useful to define the stiffness of geomaterials at very small strains, the assessment of seismic wave velocities in the laboratory is currently a worldwide common practice. The combined use of piezoelectric transducers such as bender elements and accelerometers, already proved to be a simple but powerful laboratory tool for seismic wave measurements ...
