Experimental observation of water saturation effects on shear wave splitting in synthetic rock with fractures aligned at oblique angles
Fractured rocks are known to exhibit seismic anisotropy and shear wave splitting (SWS). SWS is commonly used for fractured rock characterization and has been shown to be sensitive to fluid type. The presence of partial liquid/gas saturation is also known to affect the elastic properties of rocks. Th...
