After running triaxial compression tests and estimating Young's modulus for a rock to be 25 GPa, a series of ultrasound pulse experiments are
performed in order to also estimate dynamic Young's modulus from the wavespeed and density. Is this dynamic Young's modulus expected to
be the same, smaller, or larger than the static Young's modulus obtained from triaxial tests? Assume the rock has a typical level of non-
linearity in its behavior.
