Abstract

P-wave attenuation in the water-saturated granular medium depends on both the frequency and the grain size. In this study, the use of the attenuation dispersion for the determination of grain size distribution in the water-saturated granular medium is discussed. For the dense granular medium, mathematical model considering multiple scattering is used for regression algorithm by fitting model predictions to the measured attenuation data. Inversion of grain size distribution is carried out numerically, and the results are discussed and compared to measured data for the water-saturated glass beads with unimodal and bimodal distributions.
