We derive the equations of motion of a double‐porosity medium based on Biot's theory of
poroelasticity and on a generalization of Rayleigh's theory of fluid collapse to the porous …

Neural computing has moved beyond simple demonstration to more significant applications.
Encouraged by recent developments in artificial neural network (ANN) modelling …

We use a poroelastic modeling algorithm to compute numerical experiments of wave
propagation in White's partial saturation model. The results are then compared to the …

Source rocks are described by a porous transversely isotropic medium composed of illite
and organic matter (kerogen, oil, and gas). The bulk modulus of the oil/gas mixture is …

Permeability is a critical parameter for evaluating reservoir properties, and accurate
prediction is an important basis for identifying high-quality reservoirs and geological …

The exploration and exploitation of shale oil is an important aspect in the oil industry.
Seismic properties and well‐log data are essential to establish wave‐propagation models …

Recent sonic and seismic data in gas hydrate–bearing sediments have indicated strong
waveform attenuation associated with a velocity increase, in apparent contradiction with …

Wave-induced fluid flow generates a dominant attenuation mechanism in porous media. It
consists of energy loss due to P-wave conversion to Biot (diffusive) modes at mesoscopic …

Effective medium approximations for the frequency-dependent and complex-valued effective
stiffness tensors of cracked/porous rocks with multiple solid constituents are developed on …

Electrical, seismic, and electromagnetic methods can be used for noninvasive determination
of subsurface physical and chemical properties. In particular, we consider the evaluation of …
