Borehole Stoneley Wave Propagation Across Permeable Structures: Comparison Between Theory And Experiment

The attenuation of borehole Stoneley waves across a permeable structure (e.g., fractures or fracture zone) is correlated with the permeability of the structure. Using a simplified Biot theory, the structure can be modelled as a permeable porous layer intersecting the borehole. In order to study th...
