Introducing the first, self-contained reference on acoustic
waveform logging Acoustic measurements in boreholes were first made
as a specialized logging technique in geological exploration, but
recent advances have greatly expanded the potential applications of
this technique. Acoustic Waves in Boreholes provides a thorough
review of the theory and interpretation techniques needed to
realize these applications, emphasizing the role of guided modes
and critically refracted waves in determining the characteristics
of recorded waveforms. Topics covered in this comprehensive volume
include the seismic properties of rocks; propagation of
axisymmetric waves along fluid-filled boreholes in isotropic rocks;
and symmetric and nonsymmetric sources in isotropic, transversely
isotropic, and porous, permeable formations in open and cased
boreholes. Each chapter includes the theory of synthetic
microseismogram computation, interpretation and data inversion
techniques illustrated using computed seismograms, and case
histories using experimental data. Appendices providing the
mathematical formulation needed to compute microseismograms, with a
single consistent notation used throughout, are also included in
appropriate chapters. The wide range of geomechanical properties
covered in this book will interest exploration geophysicists,
reservoir engineers, civil engineers, geologists, and soil
scientists.
