Exploratory Detection of Subsurface State Transitions Using a Capacitive Concrete Sensor and Spectral Variance Thresholding

About the work

This study presents an exploratory methodology for identifying subsurface physical state transitions using a low-cost capacitive sensor embedded in a concrete cylinder. The sensor responds to variations in ionization density induced by penetrating particles and modulated by changes in the mechanical–electrical properties of the subsurface. A statistical spectral threshold is introduced to distinguish basal behavior from non-stationary regimes potentially associated with seismic swarm activity. The approach does not aim to predict earthquakes but to classify changes in the physical state of the medium.
