The variations of the static and dynamic moduli of porous rocks as a function of differential
pressure have been described in terms of pore microstructure, ie, the effects of cracks (soft …

Understanding the effect of temperature on physical properties of rocks is important to
develop deep oil, gas, and geothermal resources. Velocity‐porosity relations are essential …

A number of studies show that adsorption of small amount of water causes significant
reduction of elastic moduli and increase of elastic wave attenuation in sandstones. This …

Seismic and electromagnetic properties generally are anisotropic, depending on the
microscale rock fabric and the macroscale stress field. We have assessed the stress …

Understanding the effect that multiscale heterogeneities have on the wave responses of
rocks at different frequencies is essential in the interpretation of seismic data. In fact, the …

Shales play an important role in many engineering applications such as nuclear waste, CO2
storage and oil or gas production. Shales are often utilized as an impermeable seal or an …

Thanks to the recent developments in both hardware and software capabilities of computers,
intelligent rock physics modelling has emerged as an alternative to the conventional …

Bulk modulus which relates seismic attributes to rock and fluid properties is considered as
an important parameter for seismic reservoir characterisation workflows, and can provide …

Biot's coefficient is an essential factor for estimating reliable-effective stress and an efficient
tool in understanding the rock's response to pressure and stress changes. This coefficient is …

Shales are abundant and are increasingly important for the hydrocarbon industry as source
rocks and unconventional reservoirs. The anisotropic dynamic elastic properties of shales …
