    • Estimate the Effective Elastic Properties of Digitized Porous Rocks by Inverting the Cracks Unresolved 

      Zhang, Yang; Toksoz, M. Nafi (Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 2010)
      Current imaging technique such as micro X-ray CT can provide us detailed 3D micro-structures of porous rocks that can be used in numerical simulation so as to predict elastic properties of rocks saturated with different ...

    • Modeling of acoustic wave scattering from a two-dimensional fracture 

      Chen, Tianrun; Fehler, Michael; Brown, Stephen; Zhang, Yang; Fang, Xinding; e.a. (Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 2010)
      In this paper, we model the acoustic scattering from a two dimensional fracture that is simulated by two different physical models. We calculate the scattering from the fractures with different properties based on these ...

    • Sensitivity analysis of fracture scattering 

      Fang, Xinding; Fehler, Michael; Chen, Tianrun; Burns, Daniel R. (Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 2010)
      The understanding of seismic scattering of a finite fracture is very important in reservoir fracture characterizations, but the analytical solution of this problem is not available. Thus, in this paper, we present an ...
