PHASE UNWRAPPING PROCEDURE
It deals with calculating

n needs to be found out.
For correct value of n, (

Thus, by making use of simultaneous records gathered by geophones (R

CONSTRUCTION OF FIELD DISPERSION CURVE
After obtaining unwrapped phase Fourier spectrum, field dispersion curve is
obtained using the procedure discussed below.
Phase difference corresponding to one wavelength () = 2 radians.
Phase difference corresponding to receiver spacing X =
unwrap
radians.
Phase velocity (C) is then calculated using the expression:
Calculations done for all combinations of frequency (f), source to sensor
distance (S), receiver spacing (X) and type of source used.
Plot of C versus f and C versus is obtained.

CONSTRUCTION OF SHEAR WAVE VELOCITY PROFILE
As per Tokimatsu et al., 1997,
(C=Phase Velocity, V

=Shear Wave Velocity)
As per Heisey et al., 1982,
Equivalent depth (D) = /3
Thus, without doing any rigorous inversion analysis, rough estimate of shear
wave velocity profile can be determined.

CONCLUDING REMARKS

CONCLUDING REMARKS
Using SASW method, exploration can be carried up to a greater depth on hard soil
stratum as compared to soft stratum for the same input source energy.
Exploration up to considerable depth can be achieved by
proper configuration of equipment in fields,
proper choice of parameters during testing,
In order to explore up to greater depth, higher values of source to sensor
distances needs to be considered.
An increase in input impact energy at the source results in increase of value of
max
.
Higher sampling rate is not necessary for exploration up to a greater depth in case
of ground sites.
CONCLUDING REMARKS

SCOPE FOR FURTHER WORK
Determination of the stiffness profiles of various layers needs to be done using
an inversion analysis. This would allow obtaining shear wave velocity profile
more accurately. Sharp changes in values of shear wave along depth can be
detected.
Obtained shear wave velocity profile can be then compared with available
cross bore hole data to validate the results obtained.
More field tests needs to be done on various kinds of ground conditions to
validate the results obtained. The primary aim is to explore more number of
sites more effectively.
