Experimental Determination of Elastic Anisotropy of Berea Sandstone, Chicopee Shale and Chelmsford Granite
We use the ultrasonic transmission method to measure P-, SH-, and SV-wave velocities for Chelmsford Granite, Chicopee Shale, and Berea Sandstone in different directions up to 1000 bars confining pressure. The velocity measurements indicate that these three rocks are elastically anisotropic. The s...
