    • Experimental studies of streaming potential and high frequency seismoelectric conversion in porous samples 

      Zhu, Zhenya; Toksoz, M. Nafi; Zhan, Xin (Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 2009)
      Streaming potential across a porous medium is induced by a fluid flow due to an electric double layer between a solid and a fluid. When an acoustic wave propagates through a porous medium, the wave pressure generates a ...

    • Passive Seismic Tomography Using Induced Seismicity at a Petroleum Field in Oman 

      Kindy, Fahad; Zhang, Haijiang; Sarkar, Sudipta; Toksoz, M. Nafi; Kuleli, Huseyin Sadi; e.a. (Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 2009-05-19)
      A borehole network consisting of 5 monitoring wells was used to monitor the induced seismicity at a producing petroleum field for a period of about 11 months. Nearly 5400 microseismic events were analyzed and utilized ...

    • A Numerical Study of the Effects of Wave-Induced Fluid Flow in Porous Media: Linear Solver 

      Zhang, Yang; Song, Limin; Deffenbaugh, Max; Toksoz, M. Nafi (Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 2009)
      In this paper, we present a computational method to simulate wave propagation in porous rocks saturated with Newtonian fluids over a range of frequencies of interest. The method can use a digital representation of a rock ...
