Abstract
The measurement of low-strain properties (wave velocity and damping ratio) of geomaterials is affected by equipment-generated delays, coupling of transducers, and wave reflections. This study presents a new technique to measure ultrasonic properties of stiff specimens accurately. Compressional-wave velocities in cylindrical rods of different lengths and materials were measured using different ultrasonic equipment. The error induced by different equipment was below 1% after the measurements were corrected by the equipment time delay. Shear-wave velocities of different materials were measured using ultrasonic transducers (frequency < 1 MHz) and a resonant column device (frequency < 200 Hz). The difference in shear-wave velocities was less than 4%, and the measured values are in agreement with published results for all tested materials. A new methodology based on the first two reflections of the main pulse has been developed to measure the damping ratio of stiff specimens using ultrasonic equipment. The ultrasonic measurements of the damping ratio compare well with resonant column results. A more reliable determination of the dynamic Poisson’s ratio of a cemented sand was achieved using corrected ultrasonic-wave velocities.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
