Hysteresis such as stress‐strain loop, “X” shape of instantaneous modulus and Poisson's ratio, and effect of strain amplitude on attenuation of saturated rocks is analyzed under cyclic loading with experiments of fluid saturated sandstones and marbles. We think that the attenuation of rock is in proportion to the strain amplitude of the applied cyclic loading, and the b value of attenuation is a measurement of saturated rock's attenuation under cyclic loading. We discuss the possible micro mechanisms of attenuation and hysteresis at low frequencies by the macro behavior of saturated rocks in uniaxial stress cycling test. The flow of porous fluid might play an important role in attenuation and hysteresis of porous rock, and both the grain contact adhesion and stick‐slip friction might be the factors of porous saturated rock's hysteresis and attenuation in high stress, low frequency cycling test.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
