Abstract
Ultrasonic compressional‐ and shear‐wave attenuation in water‐saturated Carrara Marble increase with increasing crack density and decreasing effective pressure. Between 0.4 and 1.0 MHz, empirical linear relationships between 1/Q and crack density CD were found to be: CD = 1.96 ± 0.63 × 1/Q, for compressional waves and CD = 6.7 ± 1.5 × 1/Q, for shear waves.
