Determination of seismic wave of consolidated granite rock in Penang Island: Ultrasonic testing method vs seismic refraction method

In seismic survey, the information regarding the velocity of compression wave (Vp) as well as shear wave (Vs) are very useful especially during the seismic interpretation. Previous studies showed that both Vp and Vs determined by above methods are...
