Fluids confined in nanopores are ubiquitous in nature and technology. In recent years, the interest in confined fluids has grown, driven by research on unconventional hydrocarbon …
The finite element method is used to solve Biot's equations of consolidation in the displacement‐pressure (u− p) formulation. We compute one‐dimensional (1‐D) and two …
When a seismic wave travels through a fluid-saturated porous reservoir containing aligned fractures, it induces oscillatory fluid flow between the fractures and the embedding …
Wave‐induced fluid flow (WIFF) between fractures and the embedding matrix as well as within connected fractures tends to produce significant seismic attenuation and velocity …

Detection of intersecting open fractures is an important task in many earth science domains. To quantify the seismic responses in the fluid-saturated porous rock with intersecting open …
A defining characteristic of fractured rocks is their very high level of seismic attenuation, which so far has been assumed to be mainly due to wave‐induced fluid flow (WIFF) between …
