| description | Electrical and seismic exploration are two widely used geophysical methods in geological surveys. They reflect different geophysical properties of underground rocks, but each method can only provide information from a single perspective of the rock structure’s physical parameters. As a result, relying on a single geophysical method can lead to ambiguous interpretations. To address this issue, this paper presents the development of a multi-functional, high-power, multi-channel, rolling, fast measurement system for combined electrical and seismic exploration. The system features the following capabilities: it can be used simultaneously for both electrical and seismic exploration; it supports high-power operation, with a transmission power of up to 10 kW during electrical exploration; it includes multiple measurement channels for rolling measurement and data acquisition, with a sampling rate of up to 100 ksps, significantly improving work efficiency and expanding the frequency range. The distance between channels can be selected from 1 to 20 m, greatly enhancing the system’s adaptability to various environments. Additionally, we have designed accompanying upper-level software that not only stores data internally but also displays waveforms in real-time on a computer for monitoring and control. The experimental results demonstrate that the instrument operates stably and meets the requirements for field exploration. |
