Abstract:The study of fractures in the subsurface is very important in unconventional reservoirs since they are the main conduits for hydrocarbon flow. For this reason, a variety of equivalent medium theories have been proposed for the estimation of fracture and fluid properties within reservoir rocks. Recently, the Galvin model has been put forward to model the frequency-dependent elastic moduli in fractured porous rocks and has been widely used to research seismic wave propagation in fractured rocks. We experimentall… Show more
