Engineering and analysis of independent movable compression–vacuum percussion source of P-waves in seismic survey

The experience of engineering a small mobile compression–vacuum machine for seismic prospecting at shallow depths of 100–150 m is described. It is shown that percussion sources are preferable for shallow-depth seismic survey. The article reports laboratory and field testing data. The authors identif...

Description
Summary:The experience of engineering a small mobile compression–vacuum machine for seismic prospecting at shallow depths of 100–150 m is described. It is shown that percussion sources are preferable for shallow-depth seismic survey. The article reports laboratory and field testing data. The authors identify ways of further improvement of such machines.
