The effect of stresses on the sound velocity in rocks: Theory of Acoustoelasticity and Experimental Measurements
The theory of acoustoelasticity provides direct link between the change of elastic wave velocities and residual stresses in solids. The general theory of acoustoelasticity is reviewed. A number of experimental measurements of the effect of stresses on the sound velocities in various types of rocks a...
