Determination of the small-strain stiffness of hard soils by means of bender elements and accelerometers

Direct determination of seismic wave velocities in the laboratory is becoming common practice worldwide, given its great potential in the definition of the stiffness at very small strains. One of the techniques for seismic wave measurement makes use of piezoelectric transducers, such as bender eleme...
