Asymmetric Modes of Elastic Wave Propagation in a Fluid-Filled Borehole

A numerical investigation of asymmetric modes of elastic wave propagation in a fluid-filled borehole is treated in this paper. The dispersion curves of guided waves (called flexural waves) and synthetic microseismograms are presented. The guided waves are found to be highly dispersive, with the p...
