Effects of porosity on seismic velocities, elastic moduli and Poisson's ratios of solid materials and rocks

The generalized mixture rule (GMR) is used to provide a unified framework for describing Young's (E), shear (G) and bulk (K) moduli, Lame parameter (λ), and P- and S-wave velocities (Vp and Vs) as a function of porosity in various isotropic materials such as metals, ceramics and rocks. The char...
