Sound velocity measurements in dense glass bead packs reveal significant softening effect at large amplitudes, due to the frictional nonlinearity at the grain contacts. Beyond a certain amplitude, the sound-matter interaction becomes irreversible, leaving the medium in a weakened and slightly compacted state. A slow recovery of the initial elastic modulus is observed after acoustic perturbation, revealing the plastic creep growth of microcontacts. The cross-correlation function of configuration-specific acoustic speckles highlights the relationship between the macroscopic elastic weakening and the local change of the contact networks, induced by strong sound vibration, in the absence of appreciable grain motion.
