Abstract: | Biot’s theory for wave propagation in saturated porous solid is modified to study the propagation of thermoelastic waves in
poroelastic medium. Propagation of plane harmonic waves is considered in isotropic poroelastic medium. Relations are derived
among the wave-induced temperature in the medium and the displacements of fluid and solid particles. Christoffel equations
obtained are modified with the thermal as well as thermoelastic coupling parameters. These equations explain the existence
and propagation of four waves in the medium. Three of the waves are attenuating longitudinal waves and one is a non-attenuating
transverse wave. Thermal properties of the medium have no effect on the transverse wave. The velocities and attenuation of
the longitudinal waves are computed for a numerical model of liquid-saturated sandstone. Their variations with thermal as
well as poroelastic parameters are exhibited through numerical examples. |
