Anisotropic strength and failure behaviors of transversely isotropic shales: An experimental investigation

TL;DR: The deformation and fracture of anisotropic shale rocks are of great interest to geoengineers concerned with assessing the stability of boreholes and underground excavations as discussed by the authors, however, some...

The influence of fluid type on elastic wave velocity and attenuation in volcanic rocks

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used ultrasonic experiments to understand the effect of variable fluid viscosity and bulk modulus on P-wave attenuation and velocity for volcanic rocks from White Island volcano in New Zealand.

Accurate estimates of the spatial pattern of denudation by inversion of stacking velocity data: An example from the British Isles

TL;DR: In this paper, an inverse modeling of stacking velocity data from seismic reflection data sets is used for obtaining spatially resolved denudation estimates along and across continental shelves. But this approach is not restricted to outcrop or borehole locations, although it is important to calibrate results with other measurements of denudations.

Elastic properties of rock salt in the Santos Basin: Relations and spatial predictions

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed an approach to characterize the internal structures of the salt bodies in the Santos Basin, offshore Brazil, using well and 3D seismic data, which reveals that the elastic properties of rock salt are highly correlated.
