Utah FORGE: Friction-Permeability-Seismicity Laboratory Experiments with Non-Linear Acoustics

Published by Pennsylvania State University | Department of Energy | Metadata Last Checked: January 27, 2026 | Last Modified: 2024-08-22T15:57:12Z
Laboratory experimental data on saw-cut interface of Westerly Granite and Utah Forge granitoid rocks. Experiments include velocity-stepping and fluid pressure stepping experiments. Mechanical data from 3 ISCO pumps connected to a Temco pressure vessel measure axial, confining and fault: fluid pressure (kPa), fluid flow rate (mL/min) and volume remaining in pump (mL). Non-linear acoustic data acquired via Verasonics systems connected to PZTs inside the pressure vessel give the timeshift, amplitude and RMS amplitude of the passing P-wave.
