The interpretation of geophysical data in exploration geophysics, well logging, engineering,
mining and environmental geophysics requires knowledge of the physical properties of …

Understanding the mechanisms of wave-induced fluid flow in the pore space combined with
attenuation and dispersion measurements may be used to estimate rock hydraulic …

A core scale modeling method for viscoelastic properties of rocks saturated with viscous fluid
at low frequencies is developed based on the stress‐strain method. The elastic moduli …

The rock physics models for the acoustic velocities of the heavy oil sand with different oil
distributions are proposed in this paper. The heavy oil distributions are classified into three …

Recent time-lapse seismic observations in carbonate reservoirs subject to steam-assisted
enhanced oil recovery display substantial changes in seismic reflectivity due to the …

Field and laboratory observations of seismic wave propagation and attenuation are usually
explained using the viscoelastic (VE) model and effective moduli. However, in sedimentary …

Estimating the impact of solid pore fill on effective elastic properties of rocks is important for a
number of applications such as seismic monitoring of production of heavy oil or gas …

Laboratory measurements of rocks saturated with high-viscosity fluids (such as heavy-oil,
bitumen, magma, kerogen, etc.) often exhibit considerable seismic velocity dispersion, which …

Heavy oil has high density and viscosity, and exhibits viscoelasticity. Gassmann's theory is
not suitable for materials saturated with viscoelastic fluids. Directly applying such model …

Based on both forced oscillation and ultrasonic pulse transmission methods, we investigated
solid pore infill influences on rock elastic moduli in a broad frequency range Hz for different …
