Seismic wave attenuation in fluid-saturated porous media

Contrary to the traditional view, seismic attenuation in Biot's theory of fluid-saturated porous media is due to viscous damping of local (not global) pore-fluid motion. Since substantial inhomogeneities in fluid permeability of porous geological materials are to be expected, the regions of highest local permeability contribute most to the wave energy dissipation while those of lowest permeability dominate the fluid flow rate if they are uniformly distributed. This dichotomy can explain some of the observed discrepancies between computed and measured attenuation of compressional and shear waves in porous earth. One unfortunate consequence of this result is the fact that measured seismic wave attenuation in fluid-filled geological materials cannot be used directly as a diagnostic of the global fluid-flow permeability.

工程勘察中稳态瑞利面波法解释理论的探讨

工程勘探中稳态瑞利波法的实测曲线与介质性质有着密切的对应关系.传统的解释理论以自由表面瑞利面波的传播为基础.然而源检距很小时,漏能型面波（或多次复合反射波）的形成能更合理地解释记录曲线上的特征点.解释理论的正确性将有利于扩展该方法的实际应用.     

Simple analytical Green's functions for ray perturbations in layered media

The total Green's function for two-point boundary-value problems can be related to the propagator for initial-value problems. A very simple expression for the Green's function is obtained when the unperturbed medium may be described by material with a constant gradient in quadratic slowness. The derivation requires a correct understanding of assumptions made in the propagator solution. Expressions are also obtained for Green's function in multilayered media.
