Abstract
A set of codes have been developed in MATLAB for generating multimodal dispersion images by using three different transformation techniques. While performing the multichannel analysis of surface waves (MASW), the field data obtained by using multiple geophones, in distance and time domain, become the required input data for these developed programs. The dispersion images have been examined by generating synthetic data, and performing field tests using a 20 lbs hammer at two different chosen sites with 48 geophones. The dispersion plots from the three different transformation techniques were found to match very closely with each other. The ω-c transform generally provides the best clarity. An increase in the spread length, however, without increasing the number of sensors often leads to development of aliased modes in the dispersion images.
