DESCRIPTION:
ample information on field applications and installation considerationsThere are several useful appendicesThis is undoubtedly a useful book, written for practitioners by practitioners.-Geotechnical News, June 1996
GeoMeasurements by Pulsing TDR Cables and Probes Byron A good treatment of the subject. Provides many ideas and applications.it may be time for an update or second edition. I assume there have been developments in the last 10 years.
By examining varied experiences, GeoMeasurements by Pulsing TDR Cables and Probes provides a synergistic text necessary to unify the field. The authors seek to crystallize the basic principles among the seemingly divergent specialties using TDR technology in geomaterials. . GeoMeasurements by Pulsing TDR Cables and Probes examines Time Domain Reflectometry (TDR) research and provides information on its use as a robust, reliable, and economical production tool.Common uses for TDR technology include telecommunications and power industries, but the text examines applications such as measurement of moisture of unsaturated soils; detection of fluids for leak and pollution; measurement of water levels for hydrological purposes; measurement of water pressures beneath dams; and deformation and stability monitoring of mines, slopes, and structures.Chapters discuss:basic physics of signal generation, transmission, and attenuation along the coaxial cableprobe designs and procedures for calibration as well as the variation in probe responses to chang
