Ultrasonic Laboratory Study of Full Waveform Acoustic Logs in Boreholes with Fractures

A set of ultrasonic experiments was carried out to determine the effects of horizontal and vertical fractures on full waveform acoustic logs. Boreholes of 1 cm diameter were drilled in aluminum blocks. Measurements were made with horizontal fractures of 0.05 mm, 1.0 mm, 2.5 mm, and 4.5 mm width and...
