Bounds for Viscoelastic Properties of Heavy-oil Rocks

Heavy oils exhibit viscoelastic behaviour which is strongly frequency- and temperature- dependent. Due to the viscoelastic rheology of heavy oils the common elastic bounding methods such as Hashin-Shtrikman bounds are not rigorous for heavy-oil rocks. In this paper, we demonstrate that viscoelastic...
