The following points highlight the two main geophysical methods of soil exploration. The methods are: 1. Seismic-Refraction Method 2. Electrical Resistivity Method. 1. Seismic-Refraction Method: The seismic-refraction method is based on the principle that elastic shock waves travel at different velocities in different materials. Shock waves are generated at a point on the ground surface, […]
