Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In order to understand anisotropies of seismic velocity and electrical conductivity under differential stress conditions, measurements of elastic wave velocities and electrical conductivity were conducted on a granitic rock under uni-axial compression. Cracks perpendicular to the compression axis are selectively closed to cause significant anisotropy of velocity. On the other hand, little anisotropy of electrical conductivity was induced by differential stresses. During uni-axial compressions, conductivity decreases similarly in the directions parallel and perpendicular to the compression axis.The conduction path in a direction must be composed of cracks of various orientations. In all directions, conductivity decreases by the closure of cracks perpendicular to the compression direction.
