An analytic model for the stress-induced anisotropy of dry rocks

One of the main causes of azimuthal anisotropy in sedimentary rocks is anisotropy of tectonic stresses in the earth's crust. We have developed an analytic model for seismic anisotropy caused by the application of a small anisotropic stress. We first considered an isotropic linearly elastic medi...
