An exact effective stress law for elastic deformation of rock with fluids

TL;DR: In this paper, the exact expressions for the effective stress and the pressure that causes elastic strain of material with pore fluids were derived assuming only that Hook's law is valid, assuming that porosity does not depend directly on porosity, but when pores vanish the effective pressure equals the confining pressure Pc, because then K=Ks.
