ABSTRACT "BI-DIRECTIONAL IMPULSE SHEAR WAVE GENERATOR AND METHOD OF USE" In accordance with the present invention, an impulse generator of high portability is provided using a pair of guil- lotinized, separately activated hammer/anvil sub-assemblies. Since each sub-assembly is horizontal positioned, say in contact with the earth from a position below the wheel of an exploration truck, the equivalent of the "flying blade" of a guillotine, i.e., a weighted hammer element, must be provided with horizontal movement. This is done by tensioning a plurality of springs attached between the hammer element and a rectangular main frame. During cocking and release of the hammer, the explo- rationist is provided with a series of visual signals in the form of deactivated and activated panel lights. These signals are automatically provided by controller means of the present invention. Release of the cocked hammer, however, is operator controlled for safety reasons say by activation of a latching means attached to the main frame of the assembly.
