The Rock Physics Handbook: Tools for Seismic Analysis of Porous Media

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present basic tools for elasticity and Hooke's law, effective media, granular media, flow and diffusion, and fluid effects on wave propagation for wave propagation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Under what conditions can a glass be formed

TL;DR: The glass-forming tendency of a given material is determined principally by a set of factors which can be specified to some extent in the laboratory, namely, the cooling rate, - T, the liquid volume, v], and the seed density, ps and depending upon the materials constants: the reduced crystal-liquid interfacial tension, α the fraction, f, of acceptor sites in the crystal surface, and the reduced glass temperature, Trg.

Phase behaviour of concentrated suspensions of nearly hard colloidal spheres

P. N. Pusey, +1 more
- 01 Mar 1986 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, a detailed study of the phase diagram of suspensions of colloidal spheres which interact through a steep repulsive potential is presented. But it is not a detailed analysis of the colloidal glass phase.
Journal ArticleDOI

Theoretical perspective on the glass transition and amorphous materials

TL;DR: In this article, a theoretical perspective is provided on the glass transition in molecular liquids at thermal equilibrium, on the spatially heterogeneous and aging dynamics of disordered materials, and on the rheology of soft glassy materials.
MonographDOI

The Rock Physics Handbook

TL;DR: The third edition of the reference book as discussed by the authors has been thoroughly updated while retaining its comprehensive coverage of the fundamental theory, concepts, and laboratory results, and highlights applications in unconventional reservoirs, including water, hydrocarbons, gases, minerals, rocks, ice, magma and methane hydrates.
