An estimation of sonic velocities in shale using clay and silt fractions from the elemental capture spectroscopy log
Anisotropic differential effective medium approach is used to simulate elastic properties of shales from elastic properties and volume fractions of clay and silt constituents. Anisotropic elastic coefficients of the wet clay pack are assumed to be independent of mineralogy and to be linearly depende...
