Survey of the Yel’chevskii Settling Pond Soil Dam by the Method of Frequency Dispersion of Electrical Resistivity

  • Published:
Power Technology and Engineering Aims and scope

From the results of studies of the frequency variance of the electrical resistivity of backfilling a dam and rocks in its foundation, local anomalies of polarization parameters in the body of the dam that are associated with filtration of atmospheric precipitation and water from the pond were discovered. An intense anomaly of induced polarization was discovered in the eastern part of the dam, where the spread to underground waters of the solid chemical substances that contain silt of the settlement pond is possible.
