Effect of the Fracture Fill on the Dispersion and Attenuation of Elastic Waves in a Porous Rock with Aligned Fractures

When a porous medium is permeated by open fractures, wave-induced flow between pores and fractures can cause significant attenuation and dispersion. Most studies of this phenomenon assume that pores and fractures are saturated with the same fluid. In some situations, particularly when a fluid such a...
