RELATIVE CALIBRATION OF INERTIAL SEISMOMETERS

Emil Farkas, Iuliu Szekely
Abstract:
This paper discusses technical problems of performing an accurate electrical sine-wave calibration of seismograph systems. This topic is well known in the seismic scientific community, however it has been presented to a lesser extent to engineering research and industrial circles. The purpose of the paper is to identify the unsolved technical questions related with calibration of seismograph systems. Finding exact solutions is beyond the purpose of this paper, considering the complexity of research and design work required.
