The determination of elastic properties of volcanic stones by ultrasonic method

In this study, obtained from volcanic rocks in the Afyon region, the elastic properties were examined using ultrasonic methods. Ultrasonic elastic constants of rocks, with the speed of ultrasonic sound waves have been identified. Determine the elastic constants of the samples, the compressive strength and mineralogical alteration index data were compared. Longitudinal and transverse ultrasonic velocities were assessed, these volcanic rocks are used to calculate the elastic modulus. Moreover, the compressive strength and elasticity index minerolijk examined the relationship between alteration index. As a result of the elastic properties of volcanic rocks with a linear relationship was observed between the classifications
