Evaluation Study of Boundary and Depth of the Soil Structure for Geotechnical Site Investigation using MASW [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
This study reviews the correlation between the experimental Rayleigh dispersion curve and the Vp & Vs ground model versus depth. Six samples of stations A , B , C , D , E and F were used in the experiment.The geophone spacing used was set 1 m and total

Nondestructive testing of railway embankments by measuring multi-modal dispersion of surface waves induced by high-speed trains with linear geophone arrays

open access: yesSeismica
To effectively address engineering challenges and risks, it is crucial to characterize mechanical properties of near-surface environments. The Multichannel Analysis of Surface Waves (MASW) has proven to be a valuable active seismic imaging technique by ...

Integrated geophysical assessment of a municipal waste disposal site for its geological suitability in terms of the underlain material

open access: yesAfrican Scientific Reports, 2023
Dumpsites are major sources of groundwater pollution as a result of leachates that drain out of the decomposed waste. If there are no underlain materials that could serve as a seal to stop the percolation of leachate, it finds its way to the groundwater.

Geomorphology Characterization of Ica Basin and Its Influence on the Dynamic Response of Soils for Urban Seismic Hazards in Ica, Peru

open access: yesInternational Journal of Geophysics, 2018
We evaluated the influence of the geomorphology of Peru’s Ica Basin on the dynamic response of soils of the city of Ica. We applied five geophysical methods: spectral ratio (H/V), frequency-wavenumber (F-K), multichannel analysis of surface waves (MASW),

Comparative analysis of Geotechnical and Geophysical Investigations for average shear wave velocity in Metro Manila

open access: yesEnergy Reports, 2023
Philippines is one of the most seismically active countries in Southeast Asia and records at least 20 earthquakes per day according to the PHIVOLCS. Vs30 is defined as the shear wave velocity of the upper 30-meter subsurface profile which is an important

Assessing the Seismic Wavefield of a Wind Turbine Using Polarization Analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Ambient seismic noise can often be seen as problematic, but with the right analysis can act as a tool to image the Earth. Wind turbines are known to generate low frequency vibrations, however, the wave types that are generated are currently unknown ...

Multi‐scale geophysical mapping of the brine and bedrock surfaces along the Dolores River, Paradox Valley, Colorado, December 2023

open access: yesNear Surface Geophysics, Volume 24, Issue 1, Page 36-49, February 2026.
Abstract Total dissolved solids derived from salt dome–sourced brine in the underlying alluvial aquifer substantially increase with distance in the reach of the Dolores River that passes through Paradox Valley in southwestern Colorado. The area has been the site of salinity control operations since the 1990s to reduce salt loading to the downstream ...

Structure of an Ancient Egyptian Tomb Inferred from Ground-Penetrating Radar Imaging of Deflected Overburden Horizons [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Geophysical data acquisitions in most archaeological campaigns aim to image the target structure directly. The presence of a target, however, may be inferred from its interaction with surrounding layers, if its relationship with those layers can be ...

Enhancing fieldwork productivity in subsurface characterization: advancements in data acquisition with MASW-DS

open access: yesGeomechanics and Geophysics for Geo-Energy and Geo-Resources
The multichannel analysis of surface waves (MASW) method utilizes low-frequency surface waves to characterize the shallow subsurface layers. It is a very useful tool in geotechnical engineering for evaluating soil quality and mapping the characteristics ...
