An accessible guide to using the rock physics-based forward modeling approach for seismic subsurface mapping, for researchers and petroleum geologists.
Patchy saturation leads to higher velocities and impedances than when the same fluids are mixed at a fine scale. The rock modulus with patchy saturation can be approximated by Gassmann's relation, with the mixture of phases replaced by ...
Introducing the physical principles of rock physics, this upper-level textbook includes problem sets, focus boxes and MATLAB exercises.

This book focuses on the applications of geophysics in addressing rock properties for petroleum geoscience, geotechnical, and geothermal applications.
In the neighborhood of this point we have, by Taylor's expansion, 1 /62t ---, -}(£) - " "... where ti = tw1) and :-->''-e)" 6v cj cj In the interval 0 < v < 1/2, 0°t/öv is real and negative. Hence, 6t/öv is a monotonically decreasing ...
This approachable book explains the world of physics with clarity, humor, and a dash of adventure. Physics for Rock Stars is not a weighty treatise on science, but a personal tour of physics from a quirky friend.
