Success of producing high quality seismic data depend on choice of seismic sources. There are commonly seismic sources for land seismic surveys such as explosive sources, vibrators and Accelerated Weight Drop (AWD). In some cases, the use of explosive sources often faces many problems, especially related to the costs, permission and environmental issues. The use of vibrators is also similar, facing problems such as the availability of access roads, permits and the environment impact. The use of AWD seems to be a solution as an alternative seismic sources when explosive or vibroseis cannot be used for some reasons. In this research, we have designed and built a mechanical seismic source named AWD250V1.0. This hand-made AWD prototype was developed for shallow seismic surveys. To evaluate the performance of this tool and to improve the design of the prototype, a field tests have been carried out. The test was conducted in Ciparay village, Bandung Regency, West Java. The survey area is mostly paddy field with the near surface covered by clay and highly seismic attenuation. The purposes is simply whether AWD can work properly or not while maintaining data quality and safety standards. In addition, the test is intended to find out how deep penetration of seismic waves using this source. Seismic recorders used were 96 channels with interval between receivers was 10 meters. Findings showed that the deepest reflection can be seen around 450 millisecond or approximately 400 meters. To sum up, the device is work well and is able to produce good quality of seismic sources. The prototype can also meet design criteria that are repeatability, portability, economical and environmetal friendly.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Author keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Deep penetration,Environment impact,Environmental issues,Explosive source,Seismic attenuation,Seismic reflections,Seismic surveys,Shallow seismic[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Indexed keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Funding details” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”DOI” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]https://doi.org/10.1088/1755-1315/311/1/012063[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]Widget Plumx[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
