“…Thus, when comparing Gassmann's predictions with laboratory ultrasonic measurements, the effect of frequency on elastic moduli needs to be considered. That is why several laboratory facilities with a low-frequency measurement range have been developed during the past 40 years (Best et al, 2007;Fortin et al, 2014;Jackson, 2000;Jackson et al, 2011;Jackson & Paterson, 1993;Madonna & Tisato, 2013;McCarthy et al, 2011;Mikhaltsevitch et al, 2014;Murphy, 1985;Nakagawa et al, 2013;Peselnick & Liu, 1987;Saltiel et al, 2017;Spencer, 1981;Subramaniyan et al, 2014;Szewczyk et al, 2016;Tisato & Madonna, 2012;Wang et al, 2012;Yin et al, 2017). Murphy (1985) conducted laboratory measurements on granites using the resonant bar method at sonic frequency supplemented with the ultrasonic method and found that Gassmann's predictions worked better for low sonic frequency measurements.…”
