In this paper we generalize some results by Siersma, Pellikaan, and de Jong regarding morsifications of singular hypersurfaces whose singular locus is a smooth curve, and present some applications to the study of Yomdin-type isolated singularities. In order to prove these results, we discuss the transversal discriminant of such singularities and how it relates to other algebraic and topological invariants.PDF: Invariants of Non-Isolated Singularities of Hypersurfaces.pdf
