Broadband apparent permittivity measurement in dispersive soils using quarter-wavelength analysis
Published in one of the leading journals in the area, this offers a thorough investigation of Quarter Wavelength Analysis (QWA), which provides greater information on the electromagnetic properties of dispersive soils, with respect to cells and probes in relation to broadband velocity measurements of soils. It demonstrates a number of advantages of QWA, and in particular the ability to provide the wider geophysical community with a relatively inexpensive and simple way to obtain this information in both the laboratory and field that would previously only have been available to people with extensive knowledge and expensive equipment (three times the cost).
