Progress in Rock Physics: New Developments of Theory and Experiment on Wave Propagation in Porous Rocks

By Jing Ba

Progress in Rock Physics: New Developments in Theory and Experiment on Wave Propagation in Porous Rocks provides a thorough and highly valuable review on the latest contributions of rock physics research. The features, applicability and shortcomings of theoretical models are discussed in detail, aiding the reader in their research and engineering work. This book outlines six central topics of wave propagation theory in porous rocks: visco-elasticity, anisotropy, squirt flow, patchy saturation, double-porosity and nonlinear acoustics. The latest results of effective medium theory and experimental measurements are also discussed.
