Y Guéguen, M Kachanov - Mechanics of crustal rocks, 2011 - Springer
Upper crustal rocks contain cracks of diverse sizes, shapes and orientations. Predicting their influence on the effective elastic properties of a rock poses a challenging problem of …
As has been known for some time, velocities of elastic waves propagating in most subsurface formations exhibit directional dependence, or seismic anisotropy. On their way to …
V Grechka, M Kachanov - Geophysics, 2006 - library.seg.org
Exploration and development of naturally fractured reservoirs rely on understanding and interpretation of certain signatures associated with seismic waves propagating through …
We discuss cross-property connections that interrelate effective linear elastic and conductive properties of heterogeneous materials. More precisely, they relate changes in the properties …
We calculate effective properties of a porous material with non-ellipsoidal concave pores. The pore shape is described by equation of a supersphere x 2 p+ y 2 p+ z 2 p= 1 that is …
To establish a consistent framework for seismic wave propagation that accommodates the effects of stress changes, it is critical to take into account the different definitions of stress …
Property contribution tensors constitute basic building blocks for evaluation of effective properties of heterogeneous materials. Most of the existing results, however, are obtained …
At the geothermal research platform Gross Schönebeck (NE German Basin), we analysed 3- D seismic reflection data to determine the degree and direction of azimuthal velocity …
