Petroleum Related Rock Mechanics, 2nd Edition

In this appendix we give a few formulas which may be useful, but which are not essential for the main text.
Invariants of stress deviation (remember J 1 = s 1 + s 2 + s 3 = 0)
Solved for stresses
Solved for strains
Various forms on compact notation
The basic force balance equation is
Assuming homogeneous, isotropic poro-thermo-elasticity, and neglecting body forces, the equation may be written in terms of the displacements as
On coordinate independent form this is
or, alternatively
The function F( ?) introduced in Section 5.3.1 is defined as
where
ber and bei are so-called Kelvin functions, defined by
where J 0 is the zeroth order Bessel function of the first kind.
The coefficients for reflection, transmission and conversion for an incoming P-wave are given as solutions of the equation (Aki and Richards, 1980; see also Berkhout, 1987):
where
The incoming P-wave is entering through medium 1. The amplitude of the reflected P-wave is r pp, the amplitude of the transmitted P-wave is t pp, the amplitude of the reflected & converted wave is r sp, and the amplitude of the transmitted & converted wave is t
