Effect of fluid viscosity on elastic wave attenuation in porous rocks

Attenuation and dispersion of elastic waves in fluidsaturated rocks due to pore fluid viscosity is investigated using an idealized exactly solvable example of a system of alternating solid and viscous fluid layers.Waves in periodic layered systems at low frequencies can be studied using an asymptoti...
