Influence of water saturation on propagation of weak-intensity shock waves in bulk media

The paper presents the results of experimental investigations of the propagation of shock waves in media made up of sand and of glass balls with volume content of liquid in the pore space from 0 to 100%. It has been established that gas microbubbles on the surface of dispersed particles in the case of complete saturation of the porous medium with water exert a great infl uence on the propagation velocity of waves
