Book Description
As part of its continuing program to stimulate superior basic research in the marine environment, the Office of Naval Research, Ocean Science and Technology Division, sponsored a series of closed seminar-workshops in 1972-1973. Each seminar focused upon one re search area of marine geology which is relatively new and in need of a critical evaluation and accelerated support. The subjects areas chosen for the seminars were: 1. natural gases in marine sediments and their mode of distribution, 2. nephelometry and the optical properties of ocean waters, 3. physical and engineering properties of deep-sea sediments, and 4. physics of sound in marine sediments. The objectives of each seminar-workshop were to bring into sharper focus the state-of-the-science within each subject area, to effect some degree of coordination among the investigators working within each of these areas and to provide the Ocean Science and Technology Division guidance for national program support. This volume.contains most of the papers presented at the semi nar on the physical and engineering properties of deep-sea sediments. The seminar was held at Airlie House, Airlie, Virginia on April 24- 27, 1973 and was organized and chaired by A. Inderbitzen. The at tendees were invited from among the leading investigators in this field from both the engineering and scientific disciplines. Each attendee was requested to prepare a paper within his area of spe ciality.

Book Description
Eight cores obtained from the Monterey Submarine Fan in the Pacific Ocean 50 to 75 miles off Monterey, California, were sectioned to conduct vane shear, compressional wave speed, and viscoelastic measurements. After the cores were sectioned aboard ship utilizing a heated element technique, core sections were immediately subjected to vane shear measurements utilizing a Wykeham- Farrance Vane Shear Machine modified to produce a graphical display of torque versus angle of blade rotation. Compressional wave speed measurements were also made aboard ship. Wet density, water content, porosity, and grain size distribution of sediment from core sections were determined later in the laboratory. The relationship of sediment shear strength to mass physical properties and compressional wave speed is discussed. No correlations were apparent between shear strength of the sediment and any single mass physical property or the compressional wave speed of the sediment. A critical discussion of the vane shear test is presented with recommendations for test improvement.
