Measurement of material damping with bender elements in triaxial cell
2003Abstract: 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.

A comprehensive view of measuring soil stiffness with bender elements
2009A laboratory experiment to determine the shear wave velocity of geomaterials by using bender elements has been reviewed. Problems associated with uniqueness and objectivity in judging correct arrival time and uniformity in interpretations are analyzed by using experimental results from a consolidation test on reconstituted clay samples.

Novel methods of bender element test analysis
2015The complexity of bender element test interpretation iswell documented. For example the arrival of a compressionalwave at the receiver clouds the arrival of the true shearwave. The wave diffuses while travelling through the sample as the received signal is of lower magnitude than the transmitted signal.
