Effect of fluid on Thomsen’s parameters in weakly anisotropic media

Predicting seismic velocities in fluid-saturated rocks is commonly done using Gassmann equations. For anisotropic media, these equations are expressed in terms of stiffness or compliance tensors. To gain a more intuitive understanding on the impact of fluid on anisotropy, we express Gassmann equatio...
