The Relationship

To obtain an improved and more accurate understanding of the relationship between the P-wave velocity and the mechanical properties of damaged sandstone, uniaxial compression tests were performed on sandstone subjected to different high-temperature treatments or freeze-thaw (F-T) cycles. After high-temperature treatment, the tests showed a generally positive relationship between the P-wave velocity and mechanical characteristics, although there were many exceptions. The mechanical properties showed significant differences for a given P-wave velocity. Based on the mechanical tests after the F-T cycles, the mechanical properties and P-wave velocities exhibited different trends. The UCS and Young’s modulus values slightly decreased after 30, 40, and 50 cycles, whereas both an increase and a decrease occurred in the P-wave velocity. The UCS, Young’s modulus, and P-wave velocity represent different macrobehaviors of rock properties. A statistical relationship exists between the P-wave velocity and mechanical properties, such as the UCS and Young’s modulus, but no mechanical relationship exists. Further attention should be given to using the P-wave velocity to estimate and predict the mechanical properties of rock.

The Relationship

In order to improve the accuracy of the rock mechanical parameters, the correlations among physical and mechanical parameters were investigated. A large number of laboratory testing results curried out on 408 rock specimens including metamorphic rocks, sedimentary rocks and igneous rocks. Through the statistical analysis of the laboratory test data, several regression equations among rock material parameters were established. The research suggests that, in addition to Poisson's ratio, the mechanical parameters (unconfined compressive strength (UCS), elastic Young’s modulus, shear modulus) relate well to physical parameters (porosity, P-wave velocity), and the relationships are mainly described by power and exponential correlations which have good squared regression coefficients. The correlation between elastic Young’s modulus and dynamic elastic modulus was established, as well as the relationship between shear modulus and dynamic shear modulus.

Ultrasonic wave velocity is effective to evaluate anisotropy property and predict rock failure. This paper investigates the correlation between dynamic ultrasonic and mechanical properties of sandstones with different buried depths subjected to uniaxial compression tests. The circumferential anisotropy and axial wave velocity of sandstone are obtained by means of ultrasonic wave velocity measurements. The mechanical properties, including Young’s modulus and uniaxial compressive strength, are positively correlated with the axial P wave velocity. The average angles between the sandstone failure plane and the minimum and maximum wave directions are 35.8° and 63.3°, respectively. The axial P wave velocity almost keeps constant, and the axial S wave velocity has a decreasing trend before the failure of rock specimen. In most rock samples under uniaxial compression, shear failure occurs in the middle and splitting appears near both sides. Additionally, the dynamic Young’s modulus and dynamic Poisson’s ratio during loading are obtained, and the negative values of the Poisson’s ratio occur at the initial compression stage. Distortion and rotation of micro/mesorock structures may be responsible for the negative Poisson’s ratio.

The Relationship

The main objective of this research is to investigate the effect of water content in concrete on the velocities of ultrasonic waves (P- and S-waves) and mechanical properties (elastic modulus and compressive strength) of concrete. For this study, concrete specimens (100 mm × 200 mm cylinders) were fabricated with three different water-to-binder ratios (0.52, 0.35, and 0.26). These cylinders were then submerged in water to be saturated in different degrees from 25% to 100% with an interval of 25% saturation. Another set of cylinders was also oven-dried to represent the dry condition. The dynamic properties of concrete were then assessed using a measurement of elastic wave accordance with ASTM C597-16 and using resonance tests following ASTM C215-19, before and after immersion in water. The static properties of saturated concrete were also assessed by the uniaxial compressive testing according to ASTM C39/C39M-20 and ASTM C469/C469M-14. It was observed that the saturation level of concrete affected the two ultrasonic wave velocities and the two static mechanical properties of concrete in various ways. The relationship between P-wave velocity and compressive strength of concrete was highly sensitive to saturation condition of concrete. In contrast, S-wave velocity of concrete was closely correlated with compressive strength of concrete, which was much less sensitive to water saturation level compared to P-wave velocity of concrete. Finally, it was noticed that water saturation condition only little affects the relationship between the dynamic and elastic moduli of elasticity of concrete studies in this study.

The Difference

The mechanical properties of Ni-YSZ cermets at high temperature in reduction atmosphere were evaluated by the four points bending method. We studied the influences of reduction and thermal cycles, i.e. a cycle from R.T. to 800°C, to flexural strength and Young’s modulus. The flexural strength of Ni-YSZ at room temperature was lower than that of NiO-YSZ by about 10 to 20% mainly caused by the increment of porosity. But, the flexural strength of Ni-YSZ at 800°C was drastically decreased by an half of that at R.T. In addition, the stress–strain diagram of Ni-YSZ at 800°C indicated that it showed weak ductility. The maximum observed strain was over 0.5% at 30MPa. On the contrary, NiO-YSZ showed only brittlely at 800°C. The difference was caused by Ni metal in the Ni-YSZ cermets. Therefore, it was expected that Ni-YSZ is easily deformed in operation, though residual stress between an anode and an electrolyte was low. The influence of thermal cycles to flexural strength and Young’s modulus was not observed clearly. At the same time, the differences of microstructure were not observed. Therefore, it was concluded that the cycle does not change mechanical properties significantly.

4D Seismic

Carbon capture and storage (CCS) by geological sequestration comprises a permeable formation (reservoir) for CO2 storage topped by an impermeable formation (caprock). Time-lapse (4D) seismic is used to map CO2 movement in the subsurface: CO2 migration into the caprock might change its properties and thus impact its integrity. Simultaneous forced-oscillation and pulse-transmission measurements are combined to quantify Young’s modulus and Poisson’s ratio as well as P- and S-wave velocity changes in the absence and in the presence of CO2 at constant seismic and ultrasonic frequencies. This combination is the laboratory proxy to 4D seismic because rock properties are monitored over time. It also improves the understanding of frequency-dependent (dispersive) properties needed for comparing in-situ and laboratory measurements. To verify our method, Draupne Shale is monitored during three consecutive fluid exposure phases. This shale appears to be resilient to CO2 exposure as its integrity is neither compromised by notable Young’s modulus and Poisson’s ratio nor P- and S-wave velocity changes. No significant changes in Young’s modulus and Poisson’s ratio seismic dispersion are observed. This absence of notable changes in rock properties is attributed to Draupne being a calcite-poor shale resilient to acidic CO2-bearing brine that may be a suitable candidate for CCS.

AbstractYoung’s modulus E and Poisson’s ratio σ0 were calculated for biennial and polar ice from measurements of the P-wave velocity in small samples and from a study of the resonant frequencies of the saure samples. P- and S-wave velocities in the biennial ice cover were also found by a seismic method. The small-scale tests showed no significant differences between the two types of ice tested. Young’s modulus averaged 3.6 per cent lower than the comparable figure for annual sea ice. The seismic method gave values of E and σ0 about 20 per cent lower than the small-scale tests.
