Acoustics of Partially Saturated Rocks: Theory and Experiments

The presence of fluids in the pore space of rocks causes wave attenuation and dispersion by the mechanism broadly known as wave-induced fluid flow (WIFF). WIFF occurs as a seismic wave that creates pressure gradients within the fluid phase, and the resulting oscillatory movement of the fluid relativ...
