Seismic anisotropy analysis across a vertical crack in concrete using a controllable high-frequency source

Key Points

• Seismic anisotropy influences wave behavior through concrete structures, leading to key insights.
• An experiment utilized a controllable high-frequency source to assess the impact of vertical cracks.
• Analysis over various angles demonstrated significant differences in wave velocity due to the crack's presence.
• The findings highlight the necessity for precise monitoring during concrete construction and evaluation.
